Ask HN: OpenAI services are blocked in Cambodia, how to circumvent that?

2 points by jerrygoyal 3y ago ↗ HN

I'm traveling in Cambodia and got to know that I can't access my OpenAI account in this country. I want to build a product using GPT3.5 turbo API but for that I need to access OpenAI account. This is the error I see when I visit https://platform.openai.com/: "OpenAI's services are not available in your country. (error=unsupported_country)"

How to circumvent that? Any recommendations for privacy-friendly VPN or any other solution?

PS: I use Chrome on Mac.

surprisingly, there's no chrome extension for it and i don't prefer installing system wide tool to proxy all the network

How does free tier of proton VPN compare?

I occasionally use its free tier and I thought the freetier is supported by the paid users. They get higher bandwidths, lots of related features and support while I get to use a basic VPN that is generally privacy oriented.
