Profiles can be set up to exclude your country on Windows and Android now, and a more fine-tuned whitelist/blacklist is going to be available during Spring & Summer 2025.
An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment Blacklist of locations when using quick connect. I live in Texas and it keeps trying to quick connect me to servers within Texas, which defeats the entire purpose of using a vpn since I need to appear like I'm not in Texas. Otherwise I need to scroll down a massive list of servers from across the world until I find an optimal one within the USA. Which servers are optimal changes so I can't just save one that I've used before since it could be suboptimal/over used the next time I try and connect.
A blacklist of locations would allow me to use quick connect and not have the issue of it finding servers within my actual location/state/country.
Oh good. I'm in the state of Texas in the US, and I often need to use a vpn just to get outside of Texas, but not the whole country.
But when I try and use 'fastest connection', it just connects me to a vpn within Texas still.
This will become more and more important as religious authoritarians continue to effectively ban things like online **** in different states.
So the ability to blacklist just Texas (but not the whole country), but still have proton choose the fastest vpn aside from those in Texas, (usually something in Arizona, Colorado, etc), would be a godsend!
