For the record, we identified the issue to be related to our IP checker provider being on end-user's specific DNS blacklist. We're using a third-party IP checker to serve a simple EU disclaimer. Removing that IP checker from the user's blacklist helped resolve the issue. We will check if there's a way to get rid of this third-party reliance all together. Generally, users can and do use VPNs on our platform.

I realized that, and sent another dm over Iris. Are you able to see that?

Hey! Could you reach out over support, so we can investigate your issue specifically? Some of our users do use VPN successfully, we haven’t added any specific blocks recently. In fact, we removed one dependency on IP checkers that was blocking private Firefox sessions before.
