amires 9 Posted ... Hi, Recently whenever I am connected to an AirVPN server google search does not work and gives out error 403. I tried several servers and most of the them have this problem. I have attached a screenshot of the error. Is there any way to fix it? Quote Share this post Link to post
Staff 9130 Posted ... @amires Hello! It looks like Google Search blocks our VPN servers in Dallas (403: Forbidden). Not a big deal anyway, as Google Search should never be used by anyone. By the way, if you want to use it, you can consider to access it through startpage.com (which will proxy your query and the reply, adding a precious privacy layer), or connect to Google Search from other USA servers (not in Dallas). One of the favorite, privacy aware search engines here around is https://search.brave.com/ - it's also quite accurate. We are curious to know from everybody their favorite web search engines. Kind regards Quote Share this post Link to post

Kind regards Thank you very much for your reply. Kindly note that this is not limited to Dallas server, it happens with other USA servers as well and some Germany servers too. Sometimes it works at first but after a while I get the error message. Thank you for search engine suggestions. I hope this blocking by google gets resolved soon. Quote Share this post Link to post
