Updating my WAN IPV4 address
Updating my WAN IPV4 address
From a distant view, the distinction doesn't matter unless your setup is leaking WebRTC
I used ddosing to illustrate the point. It seems you’re suggesting a VPN completely alters your IP address, which might indicate you’re facing restrictions.
It alters the IP address, yet you must link to the VPN server. In short, a VPN establishes a secure encrypted connection to the server, so when you access a site it displays the server's IP as yours. That’s why pirates use them—they’re hidden from the MPAA to the server level. But if someone knows your ISP IP, they can still target you.
