The guys who got a year plus bet on nfl. The others bet non nfl but were at the teams facility
āNo no no. You can promote gambling young man, but you can not do it!ā
Apparently players can bet on non nfl sports (other team employees can not), but they canāt do it inside team venues/facilities. The guys with the 6 game suspensions should have driven across the street before betting.
Lions released Moore and Cephus.
Lions also got rid of a bunch of front office people for gambling. NFL teams front office personal canāt gamble on any sports, unlike players who can gamble on anything non football. I assume this is because of the NFLPA because this allowance seems weird.
The good news is I took the over on number of players to be suspended for gambling.

Yuck, fits perfectly with that roster
Hate that they donāt have any contrast. Should be like a one off not their regular uniforms.
Theyāre very bland
this is a special kind of stupid after all the ridley news last year
weāre cutting you not because you gambled but because youāre so stupid we canāt employ you anymore
Apparently they got caught because they were on the Lionsā WiFi so they could see what they were doing
People really donāt understand how Wi-Fi and the internet works. Or at best they think nobody will look. IT people get bored.

Iām one of those people. Would a VPN obscure it? Iām guessing no, but Iām not 100% sure.
My understanding is that VPN only disguises your IP address going out, but your WiFi still knows who you are due to your device based on itās MAC address (otherwise it wouldnāt know which device to send the information to).
So the connection with a VPN goes: Device - WiFi - VPN - Internet.
Thatās my guess too, but Iām not 100% confident in it.
Maybe one of the techbros will come by to confirm.
Your WiFi knows who you are, but it shouldnāt know what it is sending you if you VPN.
I think itās more like Device - Encryption - WiFi - Decryption - VPN - Internet (and swapped for downloads).
Thanks. I had a feeling I was wrong.
VPN still gets your traffic through the local router. It just goes out of the local network to the vpn to the final destination. So all your data would show as going to the vpn. I donāt really know if all vpnās encrypt all the data, but I assume yes. That way all the data, including urls are not viewable by prying eyes.
Without a vpn you would want end-to-end encryption to protect what you do. SSL on websites do this, that is the S in https:// . But the actual url is not encrypted. So if you go to https://bigboofingbabas.to what you see on that site will be obscured. That you went there would not.
Just so Iām clear, with the VPN, youāre saying that you wouldnāt even see the URL?
Yes, a properly secure VPN should only tell your ISP/router that you are communicating with that VPNās IP.
