You disable the VPN, they show “unprotected”, come on, I’m not really unprotected, why such a dramatic word, I just disabled the thing a little, I’m “disconnected” but it doesn’t mean I’m actually unprotected, the same way it doesn’t mean I’m actually protected if I’m using a VPN.


What other terms could they use?
disconnected
Your data is leaking
Better simply “You’re Leaking”
All substantially less likely to make me think of condoms
They could just provide the facts: your connection is not protected by the VPN. The scaremongering is just marketing for the next renewal.
That’s no fun
