Google Gemini hasn't been working for a few hours now. It says I'm in the wrong country, even though I've changed servers, the situation doesn't change. Last tested LV server:
"Gemini is not yet supported in your country. We'll let you know when this changes."

Unfortunately, we cannot do much how other websites handle visits from our network. It is easy to detect that you are using VPN/Proxy and limit access from it. Some servers might work, some servers might not. It is up to Google and their practices.
Couple of notes:
- If you are using Stealth Proxies ensure that you are using TUN mode.
- There is an alternative provider that has access to Gemini or any other model you can imagine. They accept crypto, are private and don't require email. If you are interested you can send us a ticket and we will share more details.

+1. It worked only from Zurich location. Now it doesn't work from any location VPN or Proxy.

It works for me via VPN and stealth proxy if I select servers in Norway.
Google services like YouTube and Gemini are a bit tricky. Google may classify some servers as being Russian even if they're actually located in another country. There's a post somewhere here explaining how that works. The only real option is to keep looking for a server that hasn't been "flagged" yet.
For me Gemini works from XEOVO AmneziaWG servers in Norway and Switzerland.
Hello, please share some information.
It works without DoH DNS servers so in most cases with Google DNS servers are OK
As a solution, you can use DNS services to bypass geoblocks, for example, XBox DNS.
I've had greater success rate registering for Anthropic subscription. OpenAI is more careless compared to Anthropic and allowed me to register and pay using a highly contaminated IP address just fine. Gemini models aren't worth it IMO.
OP faced an IP scoring issue
UPD: today both Norway and Switzerland servers stopped working for Gemini. For other sites VPN is still okay, e. g. ChatGPT works well, and Doesmyvpn.work proves the locations, but when signing in google account the push in smartphone says I am in Russia
