Lately while on VPN I’m able to watch videos and sometime have to solve a captcha to prove I’m not a bot, but if I’m using nothing (at home on WiFi) it’ll ask me to sign in to make sure I’m not a bot 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️… Like wtf

Because there is a lor of traffic from the same IP and they get suspicious

Yeah, so I understand why I have to solve a captcha when using VPN, but I literally (at times) cannot use YT ‘anonymously’ from my residential IP without signing in to an account.

Usually ISPs don’t give a unique IP to every user but sometimes they give the same IP to more people, so based on what they did it can happend that you may get limited/banned or have to solve many captchas
