@Dust0741 transfer it to a VoIP number and have a VoIP app on your data-only SIM. Unless your data-only SIM provider does some blocking

@rumba Wi-Fi network, mobile network, dates, times, user profile, what's watched, screen size, installation platform - probably a lot of the same techniques that browser fingerprinting uses

@rumba @tatterdemalion if the app/device is collecting location and sending various other data then they'll be feeding that into their decision making

@oldmansbeard @nfreak If the device you're playing them on can run www.last.fm app then that would give you that kind of insight to the data it uploads on your listening habits

@SkaveRat @brygphilomena Do you keep it in a bag like me so I can one day commission a knitted cardigan?

@XeroxCool @Entitle9294 I often read of people claiming to have broken many ports and/or cables. I can't understand how they do it.

@Profligate_parasite @thejml #PiHole sits in your network replacing your existing DNS server you may have configured. By using a specified blocklist(s) it's mostly used to block adverts and malware sites. Can be very effectives. Can take a little tinkering, for example one side-effect for me was it blocking a local TV streaming app.
To start with I put one on a free cloud provider, with a VPN from my router to it and played with it until I was happy.

@Scorchx @WeirdGoesPro Their stupid admins permabanned me too. Same day, same reason as the erroneous automated ban. Apparently I was using a duplicate account to evade an earlier temporary ban.
Can't appeal the appeal, so that's that. #Reddit is a vile place anyway so no great loss.

@QueenHawlSera lol. they blocked my account for having been created to evade a previous ban. Which was odd. First account there.
Figured it was some automated bollocks they'd be able to check.
Appealed, they reinstated it. Then permabanned it later same day for same reason. Gave up.
