YouTube grounded me again.

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

I don’t know why they deleted my ID the first time. I’m not a big channel, so of course I’m not going to get the views for a sufficient channel history despite having this channel for over a decade. Maybe I should start posting videos on the idiotic culture wars to get views? /s Anyway, my links are no longer clickable until my ID review is complete and approved. 🙄

Update: Apparently, I can’t post at all! 😾

VPN & PH Gov Website

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

I’ve been using my VPN because I can’t access certain websites, for some reason. Websites from China-cn and Cuba-cu are two examples. I suspect that it’s my Spectrum internet because the websites work with my Verizon data (my internet connection is worse with Verizon than with Spectrum). Anyway, I found out that I can’t access the Philippines’ government website with my VPN set to certain locations (I usually use Chicago). Likewise, if I set it to Canada or Hong Kong, it doesn’t work. If I set it to Detroit, New York, Miami, Phoenix, Armenia, or India, it works. I haven’t tested every single location, though. I just find it interesting that they are blocking certain locations. It could be Surfshark, for all I know. 🤷🏼‍♀️
