Amnezia VPN Review: Global Access, Easy Setup, and a Self-Hosted Twist

A tech writer tests Amnezia Premium VPN, finding easy setup and 20 servers in 20 countries for geo-unblocking, plus a handy split tunneling feature to use some sites through the VPN and others normally. Speed tests show moderate slowdowns, but streaming and daily browsing feel smooth; Amnezia uses RAM-only, no-logs servers and has 2024–2025 audits. A self-hosted option is available for more control. Overall a user-friendly VPN worth considering as part of a privacy toolkit, with caveats that a VPN isn’t a complete privacy solution and phishing remains a threat.

"Years-long ExpressVPN Bug Exposed DNS Requests"

ExpressVPN has removed the split tunneling feature from its latest software version after discovering a bug that exposed users' visited domains to configured DNS servers. The bug, affecting Windows versions 12.23.1 – 12.72.0, allowed some DNS requests to be sent to the user's ISP instead of ExpressVPN's server, potentially exposing browsing history. Users are advised to upgrade to version 12.73.0 or disable split tunneling to prevent DNS request leaks, with the company planning to re-introduce the feature in a future release once the bug is fixed.
