Does FanDuel have the ability to detect a VPN connection?

FanDuel, like many other online gaming and betting platforms, has mechanisms in place to detect the use of VPNs (Virtual Private Networks). The company employs sophisticated software and checks to ensure users are accessing their services from locations where FanDuel is legally allowed to operate. They do this by examining IP addresses, checking for IP leaks, and employing geo-location technologies. If FanDuel detects that a user is accessing their services via a VPN, which might obscure or falsify location data, the platform could block access or even suspend the account in question, as circumventing geographical restrictions violates the terms of service. Therefore, attempting to access FanDuel through a VPN connection is not recommended and can lead to consequences for the user's account.
