I know what a VPN is. What you don't know is whether or not that user was using a VPN, nor whether or not we figured out how to ban him regardless.

My evidence is that "he" isn't "back" and hasn't been. What's yours?

I performed many human sacrifices to Hecate, Artemis, and Athena Pallas after that hacking incident happened, and there have been no hacks ever since. This is proof that sacrificing delivery boys to the triple goddess works, and we can never stop doing that, lest the hackers return.

That doesn't really matter for the content of my post: I was initially responding to Modron's suggestion about IP bans, noting that those can be avoided. I later specified that they can be avoided, for instance, by using a VPN.

You have shown no evidence that he isn't back. And why would I provide evidence for a claim I didn't make?

Please stop making me verify my computer with 2 factor authentication, it's annoying to go back to my burner email just to come back here.
At least make it so I can set an IP to be permanently enabled. I don't need to verify that my static IP is in fact me. But for new IPs you can go ahead and double check if it's actually me with 2FA. This enables security by preventing hackers getting into your account and keeps it convenient for the rest of us.

That's strange, I wasn't asked to authenticate. I'm sure I cleared cookies from my mobile browser. The remember me function is based on expiring cookies.

2FA is like the vaxx for the Codex - necessary and with no side effects. The booster every 30 days literally keeps this site alive.

You don't want to kill grandma Crispy, do you?

I don't think you do. You had spent a very long time being confused by my location when I had my VPN set to "Bahama islands", and genuinely thought that I was posting from there until I pointed out that VPNs exist.
