Rtings.com's VPN reviews

Well, I think they added the VPN review to their website about a month ago. I think they did a pretty good job. Almost all VPN clients had the kill switch broken after a system reboot. They used Windows as their base operating system, ignoring other operating systems in most of the tests.

What do you think of the rthings team’s review methodology?

How is this a pretty good job then?

Given that all popular VPN client has been found to be leaking, it is understandable that for now they are testing mainly on an operating system (PC) with a market share of more than 70%. It is possible that they will update their methodology to cover all tests on other operating systems as well. It would be good if they prioritized leak testing on mobile operating systems as well. There was a provider who leaked even DNS queries made with a shared IP address (100.64.0.0/10) that was supposed to remain inside the tunnel to the ISP.
