in Privacy VPN
Hello, recently I read an article which warns of the failures of some of the biggest VPN operators ! To be more precise of a group of fourteen, eleven showed leak . This leak consisted of various behaviors, such as interacting with the website. The first reason for this trail is the protocol used by operators, called Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)! I liked to be clarified by F-Secure, for the safety of Freedome for this behavior! Gareth Tyson, the co-author of this study from Queen Mary University of London said that "There are a variety of reasons why someone might want to hide their identity online and it’s worrying that they might be vulnerable despite using a service that is specifically designed to protect them".

Hello,
I've just posted a longer reply to another message on the same subject.
In short, Freedome provides IPv6 to clients to prevent IPv6 traffic from bypassing the VPN.
