        If those sites are designed to break in the presence of privacy protection, is that a bug or a feature?

            Well then I guess it’s just a question of whether or not I’m willing to suspend my morals/privacy to access this hypothetical thing I hypothetically need. But in that case, how hard is it really to just dig up and use your OS’ default browser?

          @Reddfugee42 @helenslunch its a feature, they want to steal your data, or serve you personalized ads, or reveal your identity to nullify your privacy.

          Websites that respect your privacy don’t require you to give up anything to use their services. Such as Mullvad.

        @helenslunch I haven’t had any issues using Mullvad Browser for browsing any website but I have experienced websites that block MullvadVPN when WireGuard obfuscation is turned “On”. When setting it to “Automatic” or “Off” it resolved the issue.

        Haven’t experienced any websites breaking since. 🫠

        Edit: With the exception to banks because banks but that’s a given with their hate for all VPN’s.
