- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.

What the fuck, I had no idea about betterhelp being so scummy.
I firmly believe any service that advertises that much on YouTube and podcasts is evil.
I'm waiting to hear about Hello Fresh's child trafficking ring or whatever they're up to.
Hello Fresh is notorious for being an abusive employer who LOVES union busting!

'Hello Flesh'
Its made of people!
Yeah. Turns out, Raid: Shadow Legends is just about the least scummy thing being advertised on YouTube.
Raid Shadow Legends is connected to an Israeli gambling company
Anything that advertises heavily is most likely to be a piece of shit
I find Nord’s sponsor scripts misleading at the best and lies at the worst but the service for what it is is pretty good. Still would recommend Mullvad
I disagree. Most people wouldn't need it at all, and for most people that would actually need it it's useless due to not supporting port forwarding
Mainly so someone doesn’t get my ip and know my city and sometimes I sail the high seas
I know ip is useless. I just don’t want someone to get my city and send an investigator
I fully agree with your point. I feel like sponsor scripts should say these points. 1: if somebody sends you an ip tracker link Nord won’t leak your IP 2. if you want to watch georestricted content 3. If you are on someone else’s network and you don’t want them peeping your websites. 4. 🏴☠️
Yeah, but it's useless for that. If you pirate from Usenet or one click hosters you don't need a VPN, and if you use torrents or other peer to peer protocols you need port forwarding, which NordVPN doesn't support
It works for me and the ISP hasn’t caught on
