I got a VPN because it was advertised to me that you could watch shows by changing your location and websites couldn’t track you. But all the streaming services I use always ask me to turn OFF my VPN and google still knows my location even if I’m connected to a server in a different part of the country. Also sites like sports betting where it would be beneficial to physically change your location don’t work.
I guess my question is, what’s the point, if the websites where it would actually be beneficial to have a VPN, recognize you’re using one and block you or ask you to turn it off?
