This sort of nonsense is the reason we need proper networks and not this. How can an automated checker block a normal family use of a search website ? We need other things. They even asked me for my email address (voluntary field) ... this is potty. I like startpage but did not realise this would happen.</p>

I put the printer outside the vpn in its own so-called "group". That way VPN not off when printing. Before, when the home router was not a VPN router, one had to disconnect from one's VPN app (<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/protonVPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>protonVPN</span></a>) before printing and so the VPN was off when printing and then often stayed off if one forgot to reconnect. <br>Is there a simple way to LAN print without a VPN router &amp; stay in VPN?</p>

Negative!</p><p><a href="https://toot.community/tags/ExpressVPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ExpressVPN</span></a> confirmed the lack of comparability and told me I should buy their $190 <a href="https://toot.community/tags/AirCove" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AirCove</span></a> router, but I don’t want to add *another* router to my collection, particularly at that price and especially because I really just need it to host the VPN client over Ethernet to the G3100 w/o WiFi 😒</p>
