    Not just YouTube. Now I have to say I’m not a robot when searching from my phone because I dare use a VPN that’s not theirs.

        Do you know the old saying:
        if privacy is outlawed, only outlaws will have privacy.

        Just because people might do stuff with things that isn’t intended or even illegal doesn’t mean you should be banning said things.
        Otherwise we’d be in a world where we have no kitchen knives, axes, wrenches, food, money, cars, planes, ships, bikes, hands, feet - you know what I mean?

        There are many legitimate uses of VPN such as protecting your privacy from private interests and bypassing censorship. That’s collective punishment.

        You know what else spammers and criminals often do? Breathe. We need to make that more difficult.
