Hello! We are glad to announce that Eddie 2.26.0 beta has been released and is now available for public testing. This release is mostly about maintenance, security fixes, and compatibility work. It includes several security hardening changes, updates to OpenVPN 2.7.3 and WireGuard for Windows 1.0, improved OpenVPN driver handling on Windows, and a general cleanup of old or unused code paths. To test it: Go to the download page for your operating system. Click “Switch to EXPERIMENTAL”. Download and install Eddie 2.26.0 beta. Eddie 2.26.0 beta is available for Windows, Linux, and macOS. We are also continuing the larger work of modernizing Eddie Desktop, also with a new modern UI. We know that many requested features are still waiting, including dark mode, split tunneling, Amnezia support, and more. They are not forgotten. For this release, the focus was on fixes and updates that needed to reach users first. We expect this beta to move to stable soon. Thank you for testing, and as always for your support.

I don't believe that info is retained. There is no technical reason to do so ad-infinitum. Port is immediately open for forwarding by others if you remove it. Mostly the account to which the port is forwarded to at the time of lookup, I believe, which may or may not be the same account which the request is about, making it nothing you can really hold someone accountable for anything done via that port. And even then, accounts don't hold any personal information, safe for the mail address (which must be valid-looking mail addresses since the forums software requires it, but not valid as in reachable). Well, I had been torrenting over AirVPN in the past for years, only changing the port once in the entire time span, and nothing ever happened. Unless you're not just asking for the purpose of torrenting.
