I'm not trying to give unsolicited advice but you can get a VPN subscription for 1$/month and put it on your router to get your whole house covered. Seems like a small price to pay for extra privacy and less ISP related headaches. ProtonVPN offers an unlimited bandwidth free tier too.

    I do this, and it's lovely. Whole house VPN FTW - guest network for any "sus" devices.

    Can't personally argue in favor of ProtonVPN, I'd say avoid that. Mullvad for me, for now, permanently open to even better solutions.

    Did you mean to add a zero to that monthly amount?? Because a VPN sub for just a dollar a month is SUPER sus.

    https://vpn.simplifiedprivacy.com/ has a $1/month sub and you can pair it with their https://hydraveil.net/ tool for compartmentalization. Some of their servers are run by known members of the monero community like trusted vendors or market admins. You can also get shared/resold accounts for big vpn companies on https://xmrbazaar.com/ (for example 2 years of PIA for $15 from a trusted vendor https://xmrbazaar.com/listing/xEM5/) or rent a DMCA ignored VPS with monero and set up your own VPN for $7-12/year, you won't exactly hide in the crowd that way but it's better than nothing and should thwart ISP related annoyances.
