[fix] (macOS v14+) process WiFi actions as soon as LocationServices permission granted https://github.com/ivpn/desktop-app-shadow/issues/150
-
[fix] WiFi Information Retrieval on macOS >= v14 As of macOS 14 (Darwin v23.x.x), it is no longer possible to obtain WiFi SSID for background daemons. In modern macOS versions, to retrieve WiFi network information, the application must have Location Services privileges. However, these privileges are not available for privileged LaunchDaemons. To overcome this limitation, we use a separate **LaunchAgent** *(ui/References/macOS/HelperProjects/launchAgent)* that is installed in the user environment by the UI app. We employ XPC communication between the Agent and the Daemon. The Daemon acts as a "server", waiting for connections from Agents. Agents provide the Daemon with WiFi information upon request. The Electron UI app uses a custom **NAPI module** *(ui/addons/wifi-info-macos)* to install/uninstall the LaunchAgent and to request Location Services permission from the OS. https://github.com/ivpn/desktop-app-shadow/issues/150

More Virtual Private Networks
-
Mullvad is one of the best for privacy, they have a totally anonymous sign up process, you don't need to provide any details at all, you can choose to pay anonymously too (with Monero, BTC or cash).
-
Azire is a Swedish VPN provider, who owns their own hardware with physically removed storage and a no logging policy. Pricing starts at €3.25/mo, with crypto (including XMR) supported. Note that they've not yet been audited, and client applications are not open source, for more info, see #140.
Not Open Source -
From the creators of ProtonMail, ProtonVPN has a solid reputation. They have a full suite of user-friendly native mobile and desktop apps. ProtonVPN is one of the few "trustworthy" providers that also offer a free plan.
-
A court-proven VPN service with support for Wireguard and OpenVPN support, and optional ad-blocking. Running on dedicated hardware, with no hard drives.
