Well, color me surprised when, with my Proton VPN enabled, I still faced a government-mandated MITM attack while attempting to visit 1337x.to

To be completely honest, I wasn’t aware this was possible when using a VPN. I’ve tried swapping to multiple servers within Proton, but all seem to be returning the same. Is there some commonly known workaround?
Check your DNS
Personal recommendation: https://ipleak.net is a good website to check your DNS, torrent protection, and some more useful info.
And you need to configure protonvpn correctly so it uses their DNS. In the VPN world this is known as a ‘DNS leak’.
Probably because of your DNS configuration?
I’m thinking it must be a DNS configuration issue… Every server with ProtonVPN is showing the same, from the US to Netherlands to Switzerland. All of them.
Someone described to me in detail how your computer resolves hostnames.

I can access it without even using any vpn, just changed dns a lot of time ago and I never get that piracywall
Secondo me stai leakando i dns, controlla di averli configurati bene
