I use a VPN when I’m trying to use a site that is restricted in the country I’m in, or perhaps if I’m using something that has sensitive data. I guess I don’t get what the need would be for doing that with FT.
I can guess why they are blocking VPN’s, but have no actual first hand knowledge. Likely they are trying to block DOS attacks made through VPNs. Shrug.
