"DLSite just deleted the 'petite' tag and blocked off access from overseas " - X (Twitter)

[YuckYuck220]

Yeah. DLSite is really going downhill for overseas customers.
First it was the refusal of Visa/Mastercard payments (having to use a third-party website like ForBooks) to buy points to make a purchase.

Now, if you connect to a Japanese VPN and check out the site, you'll find a lot of games that are simply missing or inaccessible abroad. I've observed that even games without "petite" etc. included are gone too, it seems random.

Unfortunately it's not just the petite tag that got region blocked, there are many more. If you go to the tags page on DLsite and compare it with/without using a vpn you'll be able to see a good amount of tags that won't show if you're not connected to a vpn.

There's the desktop app that can be used with Firefox, but extension itself, only Chrome and Edge have it. Firefox's extension has been removed for some reason, but you can use it with the desktop app which affects all web traffic on your Windows, not just the browser.

will it log my data?

It logs and collects data (urls, device details, ads you clicked on, size of your ****) as explained in here:

You must be registered to see the links

It can't know the passwords you type unless it's become an actual piece of malware with a keylogger, like explained in here: https://f95zone.to/threads/dlsite-j...-from-overseas-x-twitter.246342/post-16843441

Their website still points to the old broken link, and the description page for that Shield extension never mentions the word "VPN", or describe VPN-like features such as "surf with IPs from other countries".

Have you actually used Urban Shield?

Yes I'm using it, as I said in my previous comment.
The add-on page says Urban Shield by Urban VPN. It also says Hide your IP and Refresh your IP. It's main function is of a VPN and you can disable all the adblocking, and cache and history clearing 'features'.

 

[dokodesuka]

teraexbf it's not in the text description though, which is what I was basing myself on.
But that's beside the point, if it has the features then it has them, period. The screenshots in that page do mention it, like you said.

In the extension, how many locations are there to choose from, is it the full list like in their "VPN locations" page on their website, or is it a limited list with just a handful of them?
I'm asking because one of the images only shows 4 locations:

Just download and see man, it hardly takes a minute.
There are only 3 locations: India, Japan & USA. But its speed is pretty good.

I have used it as well. There is not much to choose from regarding locations, but if it has Japan, then it's enough for me for this purpose. I haven't shopped with it, only browsed DLSite and then turned off the extension which I also recommend so that they don't take any more data than absolutely necessary. Unless you don't care that is.
