Writer picks Mudfish's pay-per-use VPN over subscriptions for gaming

An Android Authority writer who previously paid about $10 a month for ExitLag switched to Mudfish, a VPN-like service that uses a credit system rather than monthly subscriptions. Credits start at $5 for roughly 40GB of data and do not expire, letting infrequent gamers pay only when they actually play. Mudfish also recommends optimal servers based on a game's listed regions, such as Albion Online's North America and Europe options.

New Android VPN Bypass Lets Apps Leak Real IP via Keep-Alive UDP Packets

Security researchers found a flaw in Android's network stack that lets any app, without special permissions, send UDP packets through the device's Wi-Fi or cellular hardware that bypass VPN tunnels entirely. This occurs even when the 'Block all connections without VPN' setting is enabled, exposing a user's real IP address. The bug was reported through Google's Vulnerability Reward Program but closed without action, while GrapheneOS says it is working on a fix.
