And are you also clearing the logs at your ISP? If not, you're still being tracked. Even vpns are not as secure as people think they are. It's all trackable at some level.
So what you're saying is you don't know what a VPN is, gotcha.
Maybe stop using the word then.
The only person that knows the IP of my VPN is me because I built it and I am the only one who uses it, meaning my ISP doesn't even know its a VPN, and all the traffic is encrypted so it doesn't look any different than all the non-vpn cover traffic I create.
Not even the hosting service knows its a VPN, and in any case my host doesn't keep logs of anything and is not subject to U.S. law
If I was using a public VPN service? Yah I'd be compromised because the access list of every public VPN is constantly being monitored and every time a new IP range is added it is discovered and disseminated within minutes.
So, tell me, I want to hear, how is it you think that I am being tracked. I'm genuinely curious.
