Seven Hong Kong VPN providers accused of exposing private user data

At minimum some of the information and facts went offline, whilst it was obvious in IoT search engine Shodan.io for 18 days.

One of the vendors, UFO VPN, claimed that it could not lock down its data rapidly due to pandemic-similar employees variations. It also managed that the logs have been only used for functionality monitoring and had been supposedly anonymized. CompariTech and VPNMentor say UFO’s promises are incorrect, even though, pointing to sample data that mentions explicit names. As it stands, the zero-log assert is obviously untrue.

The incident underscores the complications with white label VPN products and services. It is all too simple for some companies to rebrand solutions with no remaining held to account for their promises. If you’re worried about the privacy of your details, it could be much better to stick to key manufacturers.

It’s also notably hazardous for Hong Kong. Critics of the federal government use VPNs precisely to keep away from China’s surveillance and censorship. A information leak like this not only undermines the privacy of these VPNs, but hazards making it effortless for officers to crack down on dissidents. Whilst it is unclear how substantially of the details was manufactured public, this could effortlessly go away the VPN firms’ buyers scrambling to swap vendors and change login facts.
