Yeah but how many social media bots do we have?

I have a phone privacy hub but it’s not nearly fully fleshed out yet. Still so much to do. If you have specific topics in mind I’ll be happy to add them to the to do list.

Captive portals are not going away. You cannot stop that but you can decide where the it lands.

The Chicago Bears and the Miami Hurricanes are doing well in football? What decade are we in?

I was going for portability. Weight becomes a factor when lugging gear.

It’s just a pry bar

And they had the nerve to give Pete Rose shit

- Enable VPN kill switch so it blocks all traffic when the tunnel is down
- Set the VPN as default route before network comes up (always on VPN)
- Disable OS fallback DNS and captive portal probes if possible
- Push DNS through the tunnel explicitly (VPN provided DNS or your own over the tunnel)
- Possibly overkill but useful for peace of mind. Block port 53 outside the tunnel with firewall rules

If DNS can’t reach anything unless the VPN interface is up, then it’s working.

I’ve covered this a couple of times but the confusion is making me think this is one of those times when I think I’m being clear but I’m actually not. I might have to write a guide just for this question.

I don’t think you are hearing me. That test is telling you the status NOW. Not at connection. Leaks happen:

- During network join
- During captive portal checks
- During OS service startup
- Before the VPN hooks routing and DNS

By the time you’re connected and run this test, the damage may already be done.
