Tell me you don't have an HOA without telling me you don't have an HOA.

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but maybe it's just you who can't bring the couch to completion...?
Lmao part of the reason I went so deep into the Linux world was because my school board had super advanced network policies that were able to effectively block specific traffic and pretty much any commercial VPN. I had to build my own server at home to connect to from school using a bunch of traffic cloaking techniques to get unobstructed internet access.
I didn't really use any sites that were blocked anyway, but it made me go "watch me bitch" to whoever was overengineering the censorship system in our school board's IT.
It depends on what you do with it.
Ohio-ass state of Ohio.
A special kind of chuckle.

To buy drugs? /s (kinda)
I mistyped my PIN (yes PIN, you can have only a 4 or 6 digit number, not a real password) into my bank app too many times and had to reset it. I was prompted the secret question "what is the name of your childhood best friend?" This alone would have given me (or anyone) access to my bank account. I forgot what the answer was and had my account locked after a few attempts.
How was I to prove my identity? Call the 1-800 number and the automated system asked for my account number or any credit/debit card number, the numbers in my postal code, my phone number, and my birthday. THAT'S IT. Account unlocked and was able to set a new ~~password~~ PIN. So many people know or can easily find out this information.
I use very strong digital security everywhere that allows it, but of the hundreds of accounts I have, my bank is the least secure and does not allow any stronger security even if you want it!
The biggest hastle was that any persistent tunnel I would make over any protocol (I tried OpenVPN, WireGuard, SSH, Shadowsocks, etc) to any IP address would be blocked after (I think) 3 hours. This let them basically block any VPN that wasn't already explicitly blacklisted outright.
My solution was to make a simple API on the server that got a new IPv6 address for the server and returned it.
There was a WireGuard server running on port 53 and listening from any incoming IP. On my devices I would call the API every hour when idle and change the IP in the WireGuard config. On Android I had a Tasker automation to do this and on my laptop a shell script on a cronjob.
