parents are changing broadband providers... any providers to stay away from, to so the bodgy dox doesnt get affected?

I know sky broadband is sh*t/always blocking, BT is OK, what about plusnet? (owned by BT Group)

general

Its recommended to run with a VPN for firestick. Assuming you have this running it wont be an issue with any provider

My da has fibrus and they added a "safety" block there recently. I had to log in and disable it. I had been keeping an eye out for it as my provider warned us the internet companies were doing it.

Just checked there on the app. So I have the eero routers which I have an app for. On the home page as soon as you open it scroll down there's a bit that says "Internet backup". Click that and there will be a bit that says "network controls" then make sure everything in the next page is disabled. Ad blocker and advanced security mainly.
