IP leaks suck, but they’re fixable.
Make sure your VPN’s kill switch is ON—it’ll cut internet if the VPN drops, preventing leaks.
Also, some browsers (looking at you, Firefox) need tweaks to block WebRTC leaks. Check your settings!

Wow, thanks everyone! Didn’t expect so many replies.
I checked on ipleak.net and—yep, tiny DNS leak. Freaky.
Followed your advice and switched to Cloudflare DNS + enabled kill switch. Seems fixed now? Gonna test again later.
Quick Q: Does incognito mode affect leaks at all? Saw mixed stuff about it.
