Fearless neither endorses, nor actively recommends, nor actively de-recommends the use of VPN services. This article is for educational purposes to help users make their own informed decisions while understanding the potential repercussions that may occur.
Fearless believes that privacy is a fundamental human right. Some individuals may consider the use of VPN to be a key player in a more private web.
In some cases, the use of a VPN (Virtual Private Network) for the purposes of reducing your online digital footprint can be a healthy and useful tool for protecting your privacy, when used in honest and transparent ways.
When Does VPN Usage Violate Fearless Policies?
It is against Fearless policies to use a VPN to trick our Geoblocking software into thinking you are in a region other than your own. VPN usage with honest intent where the user is using a server in the same region as where they are located may not necessarily be a breach provided it is done for the purposes of non-geographical-based intentions.
Members are reminded that the use of a VPN for the purposes of misleading our systems into thinking they are in a region other than their own is a direct violation of Fearless policy and can result in account suspension, restriction or termination, either temporarily or indefinitely, without refund.
