Discussion What’s the first thing you turn off when a website stops working: VPN, ad blocker, or DNS filtering?
You know that moment when a site suddenly won’t load properly and you have no idea what’s breaking it? Could be the VPN, the ad blocker, or some DNS filter running in the background.
I usually end up turning things off one by one until it works again. But it got me thinking: if a privacy tool regularly breaks websites and you have to disable it anyway, is it actually protecting you or just creating more problems?
What do you turn off first?
