There are more and more technologies appearing on the virtual market. In the last period, the most experienced have seen the presence of VPN. These are the virtual private networks. And it is thanks to them that we can connect to the network anonymously and in protection of our data.

So far, the situation appears under control but a computer expert would have discovered something not good for those who have an iPhone. A flaw that would prevent the normal functioning of this technology.
iPhone, breach for VPNs: privacy is in danger
According to reports from Michael Horowitz, i iPhone owners would be at risk. They, according to the expert, would use the VPN believing they are safe but, in reality, that would not be the case. Which is why their privacy would be at serious risk.
According to what the expert discovered, all apparently secure information would be available to all those who want to find out. Despite the use of this technology. Which led Horowitz to lash out against this technology for those who use it on the iPhone. Speaking, even, of one he cons.
In the article explains how the connections established before the protected network would not be terminated. Which, therefore, would continue the process of sending and receiving information. The home system Apple, in this regard, it uses many channels of this type. Channels that are open even when a VPN is active. And, as we have seen, this situation should definitely not be created.
To arrive at this scenario, a test was carried out on several VPN providers and various iOS version, from 13.3.1 to 15.6. The tests always showed the same results.
