Note: This setup is both for my android and pc Edit: For those recommending paid services and selfhosting, I don’t have the money nor resources for either. Also it seams some people are confusing my android setup with my PC setup so I’ll write it down. Android: Brave(movies) + Ironfox, Search: Brave + DDG, VPN: Proton ( not always on), GPay = Cash, Auth= Aegis Auth, Pass: KeepassDX, PC: Firefox= Librewolf, VPN = No VPN (VERY slow internet), Search: Searxng + DDG, Pass: KeepassXC,
Would a faulty implementation be only if you did it manually? In other words, if I just go through the motions of turning on the VPN, theoretically there should be no leak right?
i don’t know exactly how it happens but somrtimes for example browser uses its own DNS and it leaks this way. mullvad adds a virtual network interface and forces all traffic through it and prevents leaks this way
