I mentioned this a few years ago (maybe 7-8 years ago) on HN when I was told everyone just uses a VPN. Even back then, the cat and mouse game was annoying. You would purchase a VPN (plenty offered), pay a year subscription, and then it would go dark a couple of weeks later (sort of like a membership at a gym that closes down a week after you renew a year subscription). I gave up quickly on outside access, though we had a line out at work so it wasn’t that bad.
