@swlabr right, I was confused by your reply!

I did find it on that thread, hence the *via*, (although a direct link would have been better) but decided to make a new post with an excerpt.

My recent experience: YouTube keeps on asking me to sign on (I never do) if I'm on the vpn. I'm using mullvad.

It sometimes works if I change location and always works if I turn off the vpn.

( I don't know if it's specific to mullvad though)
