While we can be pretty confident that Reddit has its own motivations (i.e. self-interest) for fighting these lawsuits, this is still a good news story for pirates.

      Reddit blocks access to all major VPN services (on desktop for sure) when they click a link from a search engine (maybe even navigating directly to it but I don’t do that). This has been happening for about a month now. There’s a specific page it shows that basically says “come back without a VPN.”

      I don’t think it does it if you’re logged in and have cookies enabled.

      Caveat: there is a simple way to bypass it, I’ll let you old.heads figure that one out.
