MEGA VPN – Privacy Online

"Lied" might be a strong word, but in the context of providing a secure and reliable VPN service, it's fair to say that their response is at least misleading and irresponsible. A developer telling you that iOS "already has a kill switch" is like a car manufacturer saying, "This car doesn't need airbags because a seatbelt is already installed." While the seatbelt (iOS's native behavior) provides a base level of protection, the airbags (a proper kill switch) are an essential, dedicated safety feature for when things go wrong in a very specific way. Here's a more direct summary of why that statement is a significant problem: * It creates a false sense of security. By saying the feature isn't needed, they're telling you that you're just as safe as you would be with a VPN that has a dedicated, tested kill switch. This is verifiably false, as a proper kill switch is designed to plug the holes that iOS's native behavior leaves open. * It ignores known vulnerabilities. As we've discussed, there are documented scenarios where iOS's native VPN handling fails, leading to IP leaks. These include the brief window during a reconnection attempt, as well as the behavior of certain Apple services that can bypass the VPN tunnel. A company that is serious about privacy acknowledges these risks and builds a solution for them. A company that dismisses them is not prioritizing your security. * It's a reflection of the product's quality. A missing feature, especially one as fundamental as a kill switch for a VPN service, is a strong indicator that the app may be a lower-quality product. A reputable VPN provider understands that a kill switch is non-negotiable for a privacy-focused service and will invest the time and resources to implement it correctly. In conclusion, while "Mega VPN" might be technically correct that iOS has some native VPN management features, their claim that this is a substitute for a dedicated, user-configurable kill switch is a significant oversimplification that puts their users at unnecessary risk. For this reason, it's generally recommended to choose a VPN provider that includes a dedicated kill switch and is transparent about its features and limitations, rather than one that makes excuses for why a feature is missing.

It’s seems to work pretty good for now. I will be back in a few weeks to update my review

I have a subscription for pro 1 and it was already paid for but now it’s asking me to pay more but my apple account already verified I have done this and that it doesn’t need me to resubscribe also the pro should include a free subscription to the von but that doesn’t work either which tipped me off to this whole problem In the first place

And for those of you who are complaining GET SOME INTERNET SERVICE THE SERVICE DOESNT WORK WITHOUT INTERNET! Paid my .99 for 5 devices no problems selected my country videos everything no noticeable difference from when I didn’t have mega vpn and now I have mega vpn nothing is slowed down Amazing thank you for providing a service that’s affordable for those of us that are still recovering financially from the pandemic tragedy

Hola

Great coverage and multiple options. However it greatly reduces connection , streaming and download speeds

I echo all the sentiments laid out in the other review. But most of all menu bar integration please! and thank you

I’ve been using various services of Mega for years and have had nothing but great experiences. I believe based on my experience, that they really understand that if you have a great product, people will use it. Their storage plans, and the way they treat their clients data, is second to none. Their addition of the VPN service, has been a HUGE value added, to an already great storage plan.

The whole thinkbank !!!!

I have never tried a faster and cheaper and more reliable VPN like this! Amazing!
