      The Opera VPN doesn't work. I got banned from some internet forum that I hadn't even visited in about a year. Last time I was there I was having perfectly cordial conversations with people. Then I tried to log in a few days ago, after about a year of not ever going to that forum, only to find out that I had been banned, and I have no idea why.

      I tried using Opera with your built in VPN. With it I was able to access the site, but when I tried to register for the forum, with a different user name, and a brand new email address, from a different email provider, my registration got rejected for the reason "bypassing Ban."

      So obviously your VPN does not work, because somehow they still got my IP address. when I tried to register for their forum.
