  I have something like this on my Prius. Its just a black flag that doesn’t take up the whole back panel.

  It’s just a flag. It has absolutely nothing to do with the civil war and doesnt have any hidden meaning. I didnt want a color flag because it would stand out.

  I very much dislike trump, and in no way does the American flag represent him in my interpretation of it. For me, the flag just represents the sacrafice made by military members and the ability of the people to make meaningful changes to our country.

  Im also understanding that the flag does not represent that to many people, and does represent an insitution of racism. I just hope those people understand that it doesn’t mean that to me.

  From my understanding, they are most likely just blocking the defualt port of wireguard / openvpn and IPs associated with the VPN servers of VPN providers they dont like.

  If they wanted to block VPN traffic over 443 to any IP, they would have to do deep packet inspection, which I would imagine is infeasible for Russia.

  Supposedly, the Chinese great firewall does use deep packet inspection, so it is possible to do this at the country level.

  Hello! I did the same thing, and this is my first post on my instance!

  I just put it on an old computer with 8GB of RAM, a HDD, and an old i5. Its running great so far.

  One disapointment for me is viewing “all”. Since im the only one on my instance, the only communities I see are the ones im subscribed to. Let me know if you find a way around this please!
