A breach of SuperVPN, GeckoVPN, and ChatVPN exposed approximately 21 million user records — including connection metadata that contradicts the providers' "no-logs" marketing claims.
- User emails
- Account credentials
- Connection metadata
- "No-logs" claims contradicted
A breach of SuperVPN, GeckoVPN, and ChatVPN in February 2021 exposed approximately 21 million user records, including connection metadata. The exposed data appears to contradict the providers' public "no-logs" marketing claims — a recurring pattern across consumer VPN providers in recent years.
For privacy-focused users — streamers protecting personal IP addresses, journalists, activists, executives traveling in restrictive jurisdictions — this breach is a reminder that "no-logs" claims are only as trustworthy as the provider's actual operational discipline. When a VPN provider gets breached, the privacy guarantee evaporates regardless of marketing language.
