Is zenVPN — VPN proxy for privacy and security safe?

Low risk

zenVPN sends a fresh UUID to oopies8u.pages.dev when it enables the default proxy tunnel.

When a default tunnel is active, zenVPN installs PAC proxy settings and asks an offscreen worker to fetch https://oopies8u.pages.dev/zero with a newly generated UUID in the query string. That request goes outside the main app.zenvpn.net API and exposes the generated URL and the user's IP address to oopies8u.pages.dev.
