Surfshark is a popular, free, and secure VPN service. However, some users have raised concerns about potential DNS leaks.

DNS leaks are a common problem with VPNs. When a user connects to a VPN server, their real IP address is hidden behind the VPN server’s IP address.

This can allow third-party observers to track the user’s online activity and learn their real location.

In a recent study, researchers from CERT-UK tested DNS leaks in 11 popular VPN services. They found that all 11 services leaked DNS queries.

This means that the VPN servers were leaking the user’s real IP address and other sensitive information.

Overall, Surfshark seems to be a safe and reliable VPN service. However, users should be aware of the potential for DNS leaks, and should use a VPN only if it is really necessary.
