| Aspect | Verdict | |--------|---------| | | Psiphon may collect minimal usage data (e.g., total bytes, weekly active users) but claims not to log user activity. However, it is not a zero-log VPN. | | Security | Uses TLS 1.2+ and up-to-date cryptography. Executable is digitally signed. | | Malware | Legitimate files are clean, but fake copies are common. Always verify source. | | Antivirus Flags | Some AVs flag Psiphon as “potentially unwanted” or “hacktool” because it bypasses network policies. This is usually a false positive. |
