I also use IVPN, and I'm extremely happy with them. I used to use Viscosity to access them, but recently I've switched over to IVPN's own software. It makes choosing multi-hops easier, and comes with a option to block non-VPN traffic.


iVPN's Windows and OSX clients have the best leak protection that I've seen. I have not managed to make them leak.

Edit: I do freelance for them, by the way.


So you don't use Tunnelblick, eh? Not at all concerned about that? Is IVPN's client's source code publicly reviewable and/or audited?

Edit: Not being sarcastic/rhetorical. Actually asking.


I don't actually use OSX ;) Just for testing. See https://www.ivpn.net/privacy-guides/how-to-perform-a-vpn-lea... for what I did.

I get the open-source concern. I prefer using stock OpenVPN. But if you're going to do that, you need to manage your DNS servers, and firewall leaks. I'm not aware that iVPN provides source code. You could ask them.


You wrote that guide for IVPN? That's really great work. It gets a lot of burn on /r/VPN


Thanks :)

I'm working on a better testing setup ...
