    @hynek their main business is web scraping and they use their VPN service users to shuffle IPs so no wonder...

    IMO they should provide VPN service for "free" with this condition in T&Cs

    @karmalakas it's not “free free”; it's a perk from my bank account. if web scraping is their main business, I understand this peak dumb email much better. do you have any sources for that?

    an email with the subject “Why you should never turn off your VPN” with the body being dumber than the subject line

    @hynek yes.. NordVPN is one of Tesonet's services (together with SurfShark, Incogni and many others). Also Oxylabs is theirs and Oxylabs specifically focuses on data scraping. Years ago I didn't know that and was looking for a new job and got an interview with them. They literally admitted what they were doing and what my job would be. Of course I declined, because back then I was working in classifieds and constantly had to battle their BS
