Another batch of VPN customer data leaks...

TLDR:

Seven 'no log' VPN providers accused of leaking 1.2TB of user logs onto the internet 

 

Quote

on July 5, the data silo was separately discovered by Noam Rotem's team at VPNmentor, and it became clear the security blunder went well beyond UFO. It appears seven Hong-Kong-based VPN providers – UFO VPN, FAST VPN, Free VPN, Super VPN, Flash VPN, Secure VPN, and Rabbit VPN – all share a common entity, which provides a white-labelled VPN service.

 

Maybe stop using those free and cheap VPNs 😉 Though even some more well-known ones are still failing as recently as 2020 (looking at you, NordVPN!)
