Everyone is moving to GitLab because Microsoft is buying GitHub. You should too since Simplewall here might get deleted once Microsoft notices since it blocks telemetry, spywares and such in Windows 10.

@resistthedarkside, where it is forbidden?

Everyone? Really now? Don't get ahead of yourself. Microsoft has had one failed repo system already, I'm guessing they'll tread lightly when it comes to changes on GitHub.

Hey people, 2.2.12 is worked as well? Need feedback!

ltguillaume commented 6 years ago

I'm getting memory address errors (simplewall crashes), at least since v2.2, they're also present in 2.2.12. Does simplewall use a socket for anything? (Asking because then it could be related to Windscribe force-closing any socket upon disconnection).

No.

Windscribe force-closing any socket upon disconnection

I dont like it.

ltguillaume commented 6 years ago

It's not according to the standard, that's true, but otherwise there is a real chance that some packets will leak. This risk is inherent for all other VPNs, for Windscribe there'll be the option to force close the sockets, or let them be closed normally. Even though some programs go berserk when their socket is suddenly gone, I think Windscribe's is still the right approach.

Too bad it's not part of the problem with simplewall's notifications. I'll keep you posted on the matter.
