Privacy browser extensions misled users and sold 8 million AI chat logs, exposing sensitive conversations for profit without consent.

Urban VPN is a particularly bad offender. It intercepts all your conversations with ChatGPT, Claude, and other AI bots (glad I don’t use any), and sends them to the VPN vendor for resale. This is nuts.

    If a security researcher is installing on their browser a free vpn browser extension, I assume they are a moron and can’t do their job.

    Seriously, not only your first question should be “how are these people paying for 6 millions people using their VPN?”, but your second one should be " why they don’t provide a client of a wireguard/ipsec/openvpn configuration file? So they don’t have access to my webpages?"
