IP leaks can happen, but they’re usually fixable. The big ones are DNS and WebRTC leaks.
For DNS, make sure your VPN uses its own DNS servers. For WebRTC, disable it or use a browser that blocks it by default (like Brave).
Test with ipleak.net—it’s quick and easy. If you’re leaking, tweak your settings or switch VPNs.
