Ukraine’s cyber police arrested a 28-year-old operator of a rogue VPN that provided access to over 48 million Runet IPs, helping users in occupied territories and across Ukraine bypass NSDC sanctions; the service pushed more than 100 GB of traffic daily, leveraged servers in multiple countries, and may have exposed user data to Russian intelligence, prompting equipment seizures and an ongoing investigation into accomplices.
