I don't like using reddit. But sometimes I have to while looking something up. However, I get this message when I have Mullvad turned on that reads You've been blocked by network security.

How do I bypass this? Changing VPN locations doesn't seem to affect it. I don't want to turn my VPN off for reddit.

There is a tampermonkey script if you google it. It will add the cookie required to bypass like you’re logged in but without you being logged in. If you hit the page it adds the cookie and refreshes. Could probably be made into a pretty self contained extension too
