YouTube TV knows I am using a VPN

YouTube TV checks GPS on mobile not just IP. VP⁤N alone won't work unlesss you're on desktop or laptop. switched to Bamb⁤oo VP⁤N for streaming stuff gets detected waaay less than Windscribe bc their IPs aren't burned yet.

Well

Use a VPN is the most straightforward way to circumvent geo-restrictions. VPN services like Windscribe only cost $3usd a month (if you do the build your own plan) with no contract. Windscribe also lets you take it out for a test drive by giving you 10 gigs free every month.

What’s the point of a VPN when its traffic is always blocked?

Does using Windscribe with ControlD reduce anonymity?

No, not realistically. Windscribe already uses ControlD DNS by default, just not a custom profile. They’re sister companies. The redirect feature can actually increase your anonymity, making cross-site tracking more difficult by routing different domains through different exit nodes. You can also ch

Does the fake Antarctic server work?

Nope, it was never a "real" Antarctica ip, it was showing "Antarctica" because Windscribe devs manually went to geolocation providers and said "Hey, this IP is from Antarctica!" and it worked for a while but now all of them detect the real location(which is either US or Canada) I wish they would sti
