      I just installed Opera for Android today and enabled the VPN for all browser traffic except search. If my real IP were exposed to some of the websites I use it would cause me problems.

      Can anyone confirm that...excluding search....when the VPN servers go down from time to time that the browser will not pass traffic without the VPN? ....or at least warn the user before passing any traffic outside of the VPN?

      What I'm describing is pretty much killswitch function.

        If the VPN is down, you'll see an error message along the lines of "Can't connect to website".
