I never do. I keep a multiple OS array for that contingency, half a
dozen browsers, with scrub-routines for a frequent binary wash of the
connected OS.

VPNs and anonymous TOR are not unnecessarily unreasonable -- they are,
however, suspicious discrepancies and blocked. They are also friends.
Friends needn't be in all ways reasonable if they're as much
accountable for that discrepancy. As there are, for the time being,
among, as well, good to better sites for accounting perfunctory access
across private network connections, such as Wikipedia.

An acquaintance occurs when I'm blocked. I go there within a reason
to be accepted on their terms and conditions, such as Ebay, but not
Amazon. Two different reasons, two browsers and different operating
systems, over two different HTML motives as operatives.

In the former instance, Ebay will crash my browser upon "seeing" I'm
directly stacking up their merchandise against Amazon offerings.

Everybody's got one. Reasons are like opinions. In the military when
a press representative is about, they sometimes call a briefing to be
sure everyone understands they have one. They just call it by another
name and body organ.
