First, connect to a VPN server of your choice. After it says you're connected, go to https://www.iplocation.net/. This will show you your current IP address along with other information. If the location is different from the region of the VPN server you previously chose, your VPN isn't working.
Then they're just giving me more reasons to CTB to be honest. It's depressing living in such a totalitarian shithole.
Does anyone know what will happen if I don't have a VPN? Do I just get banned from the site. Thank you!Notice for UK-Based Users (Updated April 2025)
Due to recent actions by UK regulators, including a formal investigation into this site under the Online Safety Act 2023, we strongly advise UK users to take proactive steps to protect your privacy and access.
While we are a U.S.-based platform operating entirely under U.S. law, UK authorities are attempting to apply their regulations across borders. This may lead to:
- Increased blocking or throttling by UK internet service providers (ISPs)
- Surveillance or logging of connections to certain sites
- Pressure on third parties (VPNs, DNS providers, CDNs) to comply with UK censorship
Using a VPN Is More Important Than Ever
If you're located in the UK, we highly recommend the use of a trusted, no-logs VPN with obfuscation features to prevent DPI (deep packet inspection) from flagging your connection. This ensures:
- Your ISP cannot see which websites you visit
- You bypass censorship or site-level blocking
- Your activity remains private and untraceable
Recommended VPNs (2025)
For UK users, prioritize VPNs that:
- Have a strong no-logs policy (audited if possible)
- Accept cryptocurrency or anonymous payment methods
- Offer obfuscated or stealth protocols (e.g., OpenVPN TCP, WireGuard + obfsproxy)
- Are headquartered outside the UK and EU

A Note on Tor:
Tor can be useful in certain privacy scenarios, but it's not foolproof. Exit nodes are public and may be operated by malicious actors, especially when accessing clearnet (non-.onion) sites. For the most secure and private connection to this site, we recommend using a trusted, no-logs VPN with obfuscation.
We will continue to monitor the situation. You are responsible for protecting your own privacy. Use the tools available to you — stay safe, stay secure, and stay informed.
You won't be banned from the site, but You won't be able to access the site after July 1st without a VPN. The site will be unreachable. I'm assuming you're from UK since you're asking this question. So you'll need a VPN to access the site.
You don't be banned from SaSu, don't worry. It's just an access block by your ISP, DNS, etc, because of your country laws, with no effect on SaSu itself. VPN are used to bypass theses censorships. Pro-lifes don't win this way. Note, here, this is a voluntary decision made by the site's administrators to protect SaSu from potentially raids or forced closing, same effect as ISP blockages.

A Note on Tor:
VPNs are also not foolproof as most companies that offer that service keep logs for various reason, and the police could simply ask for the records and the companies usually just give them the data. It's good enough... probably"
