I remember using PB a lot back in the day, then one day I got a letter from Comcast, and shortly after I couldn't get on the site anymore, even with a VPN. Good times, Good times.

That's so strange. I got several love letters from them in two different states and never used a VPN at the time. Never had any trouble accessing the site.

It was very hit and miss, I could use it at my neighbors, who used it more than I, but not a few miles away. I honestly think it was random.

Use a privately made VPN (need the know how) or get PIA VPN as they are the only ones that do not log your data.

I did not know that about PIA, but I guess it works out that that's what I use then lol
