We were recently made aware of multiple potential DNS leaks on Android. They stem from bugs in Android itself, and only affect certain apps.

LOL. They built the entire fucking OS. If they want to siphon my data, they can. Without anyone knowing. Also everything is linked to my Apple ID. So what’s the point? They already know everything and have tied it all together with my unique IDs, device serial numbers and the payment data associated. What’s the point the of running FaceTime over a VPN? They already know everything…

At some point you have to stay calm and think rationally.

Now if Twitter or some random app I downloaded from GitHub can bypass my VPN, then yeah, that’s a pretty big concern as they currently have nothing on me.

I’m going to ignore the “corpos aren’t your friend” because FUCKING DUUUHHHHHH

LOL. Just trying to take a reasoned take to the situation bro. Every OS siphons user data Einstein. Yes even Linux (distros like Ubuntu do). A VPN won’t save you. It’s cute you think adding a lock on your room’s door will keep people out of your house.

Good luck in your travels.
