NordVPN Breaking Your Privacy - Raur - 22 January 19

Quote:Android: NordVPN sends email address to tracking provider

Many users swear by VPN service providers, for example to protect their privacy on the Internet or to avoid geo-blocking. I've been warning a long time about VPN services that promise "100% anonymity" or insufficiently inform their users about the limits of the promised anonymity.

Random I've looked at the NordVPN app (version 3.9.8) for Android. Not only does this include a few trackers, it also sends your email address, along with unique identifying features such as the Google Advertising ID, to a third party ( Iterable Inc. ) at registration

NordVPN is still a good VPN.
This issue needs further investigation.
