@drewph@ieji.de @BastilleBSD@fosstodon.org Don't forget geoblocking. Big reason why people would want to use VPN's as well

@justdude@mastodon.nl @drewph@ieji.de @BastilleBSD@fosstodon.org this. The post makes a lot of good points, but at the same time ignores geoblocking and filesharing. VPNs work perfectly to circumvent a lot of stupid geoblocking and they work *good enough* to allow filesharing without getting sued. They move the hurdle of figuring out who and where I am across multiple different jurisdictions. That's sufficient here, you don't need "perfect" privacy.
