Some of you may have been IP banned or muted like this:

Well, this can easily be bypassed, so stick with me here. 😏

1 | Use a VPN software.

If you don't know what VPN is, it's short for "virtual private network", and what it basically does is that it hides your real IP address and disguises it as a different IP.

There are plenty of VPN software out there, but most of them cost money. Like, Avast Secure VPN for example.

But there are free VPN browser extensions, so that's good. What I recommend using is this extension:

It's totally free and it works very well! You can use this one or use a different VPN as you desire. If pages don't load then try using a different location, United Kingdom also works as well United States.

2 | (For Apple Users) Use iCloud Private Relay.

As an Apple user myself, I knew a lot about it since I've been using Apple since the first iPhone came out and using it as a kid!

Anyways...I think this feature is only for users who have iCloud+, but to those of you who have iCloud+, then stick with me here!

Private Relay is currently in BETA, apparently. But after using this feature, it works nearly as perfect as it should. 😌

You can't choose a different location, btw, but it changes your IP address to something different in your general location so that stuff can still load up correctly as expected.

This screenshot was taken from my Mac but it is also available on iPhone and iPad as well!

So, that is another option for Apple users!

One thing I have discovered recently is that Scratch can literally block your emails. Yes, they legit do, as if they don't want you to exist anymore. 🙄

Another amazing iCloud+ feature is...hiding your email!

It generates a dummy email and anything that is sent to it will be forwarded to your real email, and the Scratch Team can't block it, either! And yes, it is also available on mobile devices as well.

Be sure to add notes and stuff to make it specific, or you'll probably be disorganized.

But hey, these are just ways to bypass the IP ban or IP mute1 If you know how to do all of this stuff well, then you are completely invincible! 😏🫥

Have a good day everyone! ✌️
