I am fully aware of what vpn services to use and not. I am not using Express VPN, I am simply doing research for a master thesis, when I came across these results from Express VPN. If you have any ideas or corrections, please let me know why a VPN provider would need to have access to these permissions.
Screenshot is from Exodus service, which let's you view what exactly perimissions and trackers each app uses. You can check out the results and the tool for yourself here: https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/reports/com.expressvpn.vpn/latest/
I don't get why the entire world isn't on Mullvad.
I don't trust these guys at all. I trialed them and despite their full money back guarantee, they locked me into a support loop, always switching support staff with boiler plate responses and links that dealt with account issues or whatever. It wasn't until I left a stern reply demanding the refund or I would escalate the matter with the proper regulatory bodies.
It took 4 support tickets. To me, they came across hella shady.
they closed off Port Forwarding
I used to host my Minecraft server safely 😭 don't know any trusted VPN that has Port Forwarding
AirVPN
