The claim that "until this is fixed, VPNs are allowed again" lacks specific context about what "this" refers to or why VPNs are tied to Wave’s viability. While some users report issues with VPN detection (e.g., YouTubeTV blocking proxies[1]), there’s no direct evidence linking this to Wave’s policies. The original poster assumes that permitting VPNs is a non-negotiable requirement, but why? Are there alternative workarounds or solutions?
The research highlights that VPNs can bypass geo-restrictions but also raise privacy concerns[2]. If Wave’s restriction is about security or compliance, allowing VPNs might introduce risks. However, without clarity on the "fix" or Wave’s current policy, it’s hard to assess the validity of the threat to recommend the service.
Questions arise: What exactly is the unresolved issue? Is there evidence that VPNs are critical to user experience, or is this a misdiagnosis? Are there competitors with more flexible policies? The claim seems to conflate technical limitations with personal preference.
