Unban VPN providers

Postby Cardflip » Wed Mar 14, 2018 3:43 am

Hello,

I'm currently in a situation where my ISP throttles certain connections, or shuts down traffic altogether. The only way to have a stable connection anymore is to use a VPN. Unfortunately, my VPN provider is apparently banned. I understand this is probably in an effort to reduce ban dodging, but let's be real: it's not a feasible way to prevent ban dodging. It's hurting legitimate use cases such as mine. Please consider unbanning VPNs.

They won't unban VPNs, whatever the reason might be, with the sole possible exception being that the VPN came directly from the ISP themselves. The most they'll do is whitelist a username for you.

Well, it would be fantastic if they did that for me, but that doesn't seem realistic to do that for every person who needs to use a VPN.

Please post a ban appeal.
