What is a Kill Switch?

A kill switch shuts down all Internet traffic if/when your current VPN connection stops working. This is a great feature to enable if you want to maximize your privacy and anonymity because having a kill switch kills your internet if you are not being protected by the VPN. This means your privacy will still be safe and secure even if the connection to our VPN is lost.
