Never have I ever piped curl to bash.

Nothing wrong with my comprehension.

Don’t be butthurt but I really don’t care about the drama. Drama gets blocked here and I’ve seen plenty dodgy stuff from both instances. No saints on either side.

I’m just looking at what is here. Not the drama on a instance I barely notice.

That isn’t how I’m seeing any of this.

I only own one Samsung TV. Its a really smart TV. Its magnificent. It never switches input which is a good thing since I never need to. This is because it has no built in services of the so called 'smart tv’s"

Of course it is. Its what the block button was made for.

You cannot fault people for following rule 33.

Wireguard tunnels with a ssh tunnel as a backup.

Nope. I looked at it and couldn’t come up with a way to do it. Please ignore that though. I would love to eliminate their device but so far I haven’t been able. If you figure it out I would be happy to give it a try. I’m using the passthrough method on my att router. My router does have a public IP on the wan and I shut IPV6 down completely.

I have quite a bit of experience with the tech. I’ve worked for several ISPs over the years. My last gig was sysadmin for a small four town ISP.

It depends on their policies. Some ISPs allow you to purchase your own router. Some don’t. As long as their device supports bridging or in some cases DMZ you can just bypass their device to use your own. That is what I did when I switched to AT&Fee fiber.

I use pfsense as my router os and run pfblockerng for my filter. Anytime I have some problem I can log in to the router and look at what is being blocked and if necessary whitelist the entry that is being blocked.

I also redirect all dns to my router at the firewall and block dns over https. This means that all dns no matter the settings on the client machine are redirected to the router. Its not fool proof but so far so good.

Came here to say this. I use wireguard and it simply works.

that is okay feddit.uk is blocked by my default blocklist on the router. I’ve started to add it to the white list a few times but no I think I’ll let fate sort it out.

My thought is that people who dont like this will stop using proton vpn.

Nothing morally wrong with working around a artificial limitation.

Wireguard so you are always seen as being on the local network. This bit of assholery is easily defeated.

Go away dude. I get that you have hived down the subject to the point of obsession but I’ve got websites that have been up for decades and if they go on a blocklist it will be for another reason. Not because of two barely used DNS records. Further if they become required then I’m sure they will be supported.

I’ll worry about it when it happens until then its obscure and of no importance.

I guess I’ll worry about the obscure when its needed for something.
