If I disable uBlock, Deezer loads just fine, despite NextDNS and Pi-Hole doing their thing. Anyone know how to troubleshoot or fix things?

But that is the point. Most people do not use VPNs, you harm very few legitimate customers and save yourself the headache of dealing with all those who use VPNs for scams, attacks, exploits,...

The trade-off is entirely different from dynamic IPs.

Also, the admins running those things don't do stuff to look like they are doing things, they wouldn't care if you use a VPN if there was no downside to treating VPN IPs like any other.

I disagree, there's many legitimate reasons to run VPNs. Even if said users are few in number, they shouldn't be assumed to be dodgy.
