While experimenting with ProtonVPN’s Wireguard configs, I realized that my real IPv6 address was leaking while IPv4 was correctly going through the tunnel. How do I prevent this from happening?

I’ve already tried adding ::/0 to the AllowedIPs option and IPv6 is listed as disabled in the NetworkManager profile.

      We’re not talking about privacy in that context here

      We’re trying to patch a leaking ipv6 which I gave my solution to.

      Don’t use it if you don’t like it lmao

        I suppose but my point was that rooting your device decreases security immensely via crippling the android security model.
