[QUOTE="Indingo, post: 1000807, member: 87984"] Im sorry, either you have no idea what you are talking about or your are shilling for surfshark for some reason. Its not the same at all. Wireguard as a protocol has an issue where it by its very nature has to keep a user key while the connection is active, which is why small disconections last for a very short time, unlike OpenVPN which will fully drop your connection. Many (better) VPN companies have subverted this with a 180s switch for clearing active connections. Surfshark however, can probably see what your doing actively while connected (?to prevent abuse or other reasons) and more than that, if authorities seize the servers within a 15 minute window they will have access to the connection log data and can probably correlate traffic this way, potentially de-anonymising a user, let alone if Surfshark gets a request from authorities in an active lawful warrent, they could be forced to give active connection information with timestamps and user account ID's directly to authorities and if the user did not pay for the account with cash, they could easily be tied to their payment info (real world identity) Don't try to shill for a company who is quit literally hiding the changes to their privacy policy in bad faith, insead of informing all users by email (which would cause a mass exidous from the company) which shows they are more about money than their users or ethics. Why use a VPN? [/QUOTE]
