If you're not using a VPN to visit PB.org from a non- problematic country, are you even trying?

Not sure what this comment means. I'm in a poor eastern country and I use VPN to Netherlands to browse torrent trackers. Pretty sure my country is far more problematic than central EU, but for whatever reason my poor country protects US interests more than most of the EU

My torrent program and prowlarr use a VPN. I don't bother using it for normal browsing.

I have it running at router level but to a local server (so Australian). My devices also have it on so I can quickly change location on whatever device I'm using too
