The heat on torrenting is getting worse - https://torrentfreak.com/u-s-court-orders-up-to-97500-in-damages-for-sharing-adult-films-via-bittorrent-250322/ The weak link in privacy is port forwarding, so adding an easy-to-use expiration date to a port would help users with their privacy. It could have practical time windows of usage: 12 hours, 1 day, 2 days, 7 days I think it would be a nice opt-in feature.

Why should UK get any more servers? The bandwidth is maybe 60% used.

@Staff etc/airvpn/bluetit.rc from RC3 x86_64 tarball still contains the deprecated airvpnconnectivitycheck option and the new networkcheck isn't included. Also checked ARM64 tarball: same. I guess all tarballs are affected.

Hello! We're very glad to inform you that two new 10 Gbit/s full duplex servers located in Frankfurt, Germany, are available: Adhil and Fuyue. They will replace 1 Gbit/s servers Intercrus, Serpens, Tucana and Veritate, which will be decommissioned on 2025-07-31 as they run on hardware and lines that show first signs of inadequacy after a year of extraordinary userbase growth. The AirVPN client will show automatically the new servers; if you use any other OpenVPN or WireGuard client you can generate all the files to access them through our configuration/certificates/key generator (menu "Client Area"->"Config generator"). The servers accept connections on ports 53, 80, 443, 1194, 2018 UDP and TCP for OpenVPN and ports 1637, 47107 and 51820 UDP for WireGuard. They support OpenVPN over SSL and OpenVPN over SSH, TLS 1.3, OpenVPN tls-crypt and WireGuard. Full IPv6 support is included as well. As usual no traffic limits, no logs, no discrimination on protocols and hardened security against various attacks with separate entry and exit-IP addresses. You can check the status as usual in our real time servers monitor : https://airvpn.org/servers/Adhil https://airvpn.org/servers/Fuyue Do not hesitate to contact us for any information or issue. Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff

Another vote for adding Turkey servers.

Hello! This is by design to avoid permanent lock out on remotely accessed machines while allowing non-VPN traffic when wished. Please also note that the article is wrong in telling that there's a leak during a system reboot even when network lock is enabled: the leak may occur only if the Network Lock has not been engaged, for example if you have not started the AirVPN software. On Linux systems you also have the option of setting a persistent network lock with Bluetit daemon, a component of the AirVPN Suite. As soon as the daemon starts it enforces the network lock, no matter whether a connection is started or not. If you have a systemd based Linux distribution, please note that the asinine systemd init startup is not deterministic and this is of course not our responsibility. Therefore you can't be sure when Bluetit will be started, regardless of the priority you wish. If you need permanent blocking firewall rules surviving reboots even when the VPN software is not running the solution is straightforward: set permanent firewall rules as explained in various articles (a recent one is here https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/69097-permanent-kill-switch-for-eddie-client) or follow the suggestion included in the very same article you linked. Be aware that this setup is problematic on remotely accessed machines. Kind regards
