in the last time there are more and more apps, for which I have to show them my IP adress. Without they have bigger problems working. For example Antennapod, Applounge, Browser, DB Navigator, and others… Why is this? Where can I give the feedback?
what kind of misbehaviour is occuring when hiding your ip address?
I can confirm that Internet connection is exetremly slow and therefore some apps are slow or not even loading. Ia there something else you habe recognized?
I’m experiencing that kind of troubles too. Many apps are now able to know whether or not you’re using a vpn, and thus, are able to block you if you do use one. I’m afraid there’s nothing for us to do except making vpn devs aware of the problem. Try to write a comment or open an issue on the github/forum of your vpn.
I’d wager it’s the remote end penalizing TOR traffic. In Antennapod you have many endpoints you talk to (per subscription), some of which could penalize TOR. On the Browser it depends on the provider. Hard then to make guarantees on availability if the provider feels there is too much abuse.
