It’s also possible he got sloppy. If you’ve been doing something for a long time, that can happen. Like forgetting to double check if your vpn is connected for the 10000th time after 10 years of not facing issues.
That and you get cocky, because you’ve been getting away for it so long, that you think you’re unstoppable.
This applies to all repetitive tasks, for example as an experienced driver there comes a point where you get sloppy about checking mirrors, because 99.999% of the time it’s ok. And then bam.
For this very reason, I have my VPN set up so that if it’s off, the whole internet connection is shut off. And as a backup, my torrent app will only work through the VPN interface, not the general network. I know what I’m like, and would definitely forget this all the time lol.
