[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 972821, member: 32260"] Normally any website can see your IP if it needs. I think that the test on dnslinktest.com makes sense only when you use anonymity or privacy service (like VPN). See also: [URL unfurl="true"]https://groups.google.com/g/fqlt/c/cRaY0pVSAR4[/URL] If the Network Protection (NP) is set to Audit, then it does not protect anything but only checks the URL and writes the information to the Log about connections with malicious URLs. If there is any difference on dnsleaktest.com then it can follow from the fact that Defender can block some URLs when NP is set to ON. I am not sure if the Defender's telemetry is the same or slightly different when using ON or Audit mode. [/QUOTE]
