Try getting the DuckDuckGo add-on for your web browser..

Google has a new security protocol that is blocking a HUGE amount of sites .

I use Firefox with DuckDuckGo and can visit any site. No warning messages and CANNOT CONNECT crap.

Hmmmm

1...Wise charges less than Canadian banks in all my experiences.

2... preload a credit card with funds and simply go into Thai bank and withdraw from it, you will only need your passport.

3... CASH gets best exchange rate, shop around for best rate at money changers , not banks or SuperRich, but private exchanges.

Good luck
