I'm not sure what the question is :)

But i'm even less sure about what i can do to resolve it as that's something from the VPN not us....

I get the same at random intervals and only ever on here. I close the page to clear any cookies and relog in, sometimes I reset the VPN in the browser.

I'm using ExpessVPN which one are you using? Linux Mint and Firefox are the OS and browser.

AFAICT it's triggered by IP addresses, if I switch between VPN locations in the UK it usually resets.

I could be talking shite, I know what I need to know about my home network but beyond there be dragons.

IT's unlikely to be this 'site' as such... The site doesn't know or care where, how or even what you came from. The ISP/Hosting though may have blacklisted specific IP ranges/locations due to spamming / etc ....

I'm curious as to what you think anyone is looking for in terms of needing Brave and a VPN. Who or what do you think is going to be stealing/stolen ?

I use VPN but only to connect to work networks, if i'm not working, i use no VPN and on my phone i use nothing at all...

I bet you don't use a free VPN to connect to work networks. It's funny, people don't trust the world 'out there' but they'll happily give their data to a free VPN provider. There's a reason they're free...

Its the free try before you buy test. Brave was only used as it has a good ad blocker what worked well on WB adverts on TRC. I just stuck with it. VPN is needed for illegal streaming service. No VPN i could not have watched Man U make an arse of extra time last night. No VPN my Torrent search engine wont open.

I get a similar message and disconnection once in a blue moon. Switch the VPN off for a sec, switch on, carry on.

Lots of VPN deals out there, fwiw I went with PIA which had the best price/performance ratio.

Yup, the site is https, so it's encrypted, why use a VPN, you're encrypting encrypted traffic

So i spot an issue what i may have thought could be a site issue and and ask about it, after one answer from Cheb the issue is sussed and now i get questioned about why i use a VPN and use Brave like i need to justify it. Ill report/mention bugger all from now on that is for sure.
