I use a very common VPN service and it works well for the most part. But I have gotten a notice warning me of illegal downloading activity from my service provider. I looked into DNS leaks, got educated and fixed the initial problem so I think I’m good, but when I try to do my thing I get the same popup with the VPN activated it advertises it’s VPN service and tells me my location, IP, ISP, browser, and OS. I can’t download when I use my preferred browser, which is Brave. I have to use Safari which doesn’t seem to be secure. When I try whatismyIP.com to test it it tells me I’m wherever my VPN is set to. On doileak.com it says I have no leaks. Am I missing something?
