I want to start seeding torrents, but since port forwarding was removed, how can I still seed torrents?

Unprompted location changing (zerobytes.monster)
The original post: /r/mullvadvpn by /u/StrollinShroom on 2024-08-26 00:16:58.

Hi! I just started using Mullvad this week. One odd thing I’ve noticed on both my phone and PC is that the app seems to change location/servers sporadically. Is this normal behavior for the app? It always stays within the same country but bounces from server to server.

I can't be alone in having noticed increasingly more CAPTCHAs and services blocking access in the recent year. I've been using M since about 2016 and I don't know if it's due to AI or something in recent years, but a lot of websites have become almost unusable.

I understand Google is a horrible company and should be avoided at all costs. But they are everywhere on the web. I don't use Google Search much these days or any of their services, other than YouTube. But even on YouTube I've started getting CAPTCHAs just by loading the website. I've never had that issue before! Just now, I literally just typed in the YouTube website URL and had to make a CAPTCHA.

And not only that, I have to keep solving them for 2-3 minutes these days. Even though I get them all correct, it keeps bullying me and force-feeds me with more CAPTCHAs. And the problem is that a lot of websites implement the reCAPTCHA service on their website, making it incredibly frustrating.

On top of that, I've seen an increase in number of websites straight up blocking M from accessing it. Even Reddit now requires me to sign in. It started a few months ago and back then I could just switch server. But now pretty much every M server in Europe requires me to sign in to Reddit to use it. I mainly just browse without signing in. I never post (except this time).

I only use servers Owned by M, and in Europe. But ever since about 1.5 to 2 years ago it's been getting more frustrating using it. The worst thing is the damn CAPTCHAs. I don't know how many I had to solve in the last year and I feel like this is law suit territory. Every CAPTCHA that is solved improves Google Maps and their AI. It's basically free labor for them. But no person should have to solve 20+ CAPTCHA in a row. I'm not kidding. For the most part it's around 10, but sometimes 20-30. And especially the slow ones that keep fading images for 7 seconds. I'm wasting time.

The issue is all the websites using reCAPTCHA and Google services on their website. But they are normies and they will never ever change. So what the f am I supposed to do now? Is there any way to just bypass reCAPTCHA without any hassle. I just want to browse the web, read an article or watch a video sometimes.

I will be shocked if anyone even sees this post. I keep getting the red banner on Reddit ("We have encountered an error") and we all know what that means (shadowban).

Using: Debian 12, M Browser (not a single change, just straight out the box) and a M-owned server in Europe.

Account Suspended (zerobytes.monster)

Since using mullvad I've had 2 account suspensions from X.com, I haven't done anything to deserve it so all I can think is that the mullvad IPs must be flagged. Is this common? I've used different IPs during this process but I'm using the same one consistently I'm not hopping.

Currently working in China? (zerobytes.monster)
The original post: /r/mullvadvpn by /u/Careful-Memory2560 on 2024-08-25 14:59:24.

Is mullvad currently functioning in China (from anyone there right now)?? I just got told it’s not working there currently after I just bought it. I also have Let’s VPN with mullvad as my backup, but now I’m thinking I should get Another backup (as I’m an online worker and can’t have any problems).

Estonia issues (zerobytes.monster)
The original post: /r/mullvadvpn by /u/rustyoswin on 2024-08-25 13:55:06.

I’ve been a Mullvad user for 2 years now and personally I’ve never had any problems. However, this week I’ve been having issues being connected, on all my devices, on to the Estonian server. Every time I want to watch any video on YouTube I get a “please sign in to confirm you are not a bot” and cannot continue. This happens on all browsers I use too The only way I can get round this is to switch to UK (some others may work but UK was the first I tried which worked). Does anyone know why it’s doing this and if there’s a fix/way round?

FYI, I have no google accounts so unable to login

Any suggestions for things to tweak?

MULLVAD VPN for Samsung TV (zerobytes.monster)
The original post: /r/mullvadvpn by /u/AcrobaticPotrato on 2024-08-24 22:35:37.

Hello guys,

This is the model of the TV 43" Class QLED 4K Q60C | Samsung US or one very similar.

I tried looking for Mullvad in the App section but nothing showed up.

I've seen this post from a couple of years ago and there was no solution.

Samsung Tv : r/mullvadvpn (reddit.com)

Has there been any advancements since?

Thanks

SOLVED It was as simple as trying other servers. I falsely assumed I needed to use the ones in UA.

I am new to Mullvad after moving away from Surfshark when my subscription ends.

I mostly used Surfshark for access to https://www.uz.gov.ua/en/ and it worked fine. I can’t access it with Mullvad.

When checking my ip connections they both appear to be using routing through https://www.datacamp.co.uk to a rented server in Kyiv.

What am I missing here, why would it not work for this use?

Is Mullvad a good choice for you ? Or are you disappointed or not completely satisfied ?

DoH on firefox seems to be working just fine. However, when I set it as my PC's DNS servers, I lose all internet connection. This happened suddenly a few months ago and since then I was unable to use Mullvad DNS. Tested it on 2 of my machines.
