Free VPN Risk Index: Android Apps
#1
Quote:We created the risk index by testing the 150 most popular free VPN apps in the official Google Play store. More than 25% failed to protect user privacy due to DNS leaks. We also found 85% featured questionable permissions or functions buried in their source code that could potentially be used to spy on users. Our tests also revealed a laundry list of other security flaws and performance issues.
  • Tested: 150 free VPN apps with over 260M installs from Google Play store
  • 25% fail to protect user privacy due to DNS and other leaks
  • 85% feature excessive permissions or functions with potential for privacy abuses
  • Long list of other security flaws and performance issues
