Why would she need a VPN to access chat gpt though?
I actually just sought out this comment to see if any reason was given about what a VPN had to do with any of it.
I think it was just a strange coincidence. In the past she never took my comments on IT security seriously, so it seemed odd that at the same time she started using Chat-gpt she started using the VPN.
Shortly after that, she wanted me to pay a credit card bill of hers, I said sure no problem, just get me the statement so I know how much. She refused. She could have just given me the total, but she refused because "I wanted to verify her purchases."
That, obviously, made me very upset, because I wasn't suspicious until she said I wanted to inspect her statement. That weekend she traveled out of state, and when she came back I discovered the sexting.
Clearly she was on the way out, but the point remains, did chat-gpt accelerate things downward? That's my question.
Ah, that makes some sense. At a guess I'd say it's plausible that she was asking chatgpt how to hide info online and it suggested a VPN. If she never used one or talked about digital privacy before that it could make sense.
