I noticed this was true in the past as I would always get a message that I was not in the right place, so I had to use my VPN to get around it. But lately, I can access surveys and rewards, but only if I don't use the VPN for a US IP address. Once I stopped using my VPN, the home page returned to normal and I sent them an email about not receiving any surveys. Seems that I "opted out" of sharing my information, so to them that meant no more surveys. Opted back in and no problems.
