> No OpenVPN detected.

Looks like Mullvad is clear.

Also in case anyone was curious about the name and image, I haven't thought about this series in forever: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W.I.T.C.H._(TV_series)

>OpenVPN detected.

Not for me. It detected Mulvad

ProtonVPN passes too which is funny because I'm solving so many captchas I could power an entire captcha solving saas all by myself. So I'm not entirely convinced by this method.

That's because most sites serve you a captcha based on your IP address and ASN.

Mullvad uses both OpenVPN and Wireguard

And the site seems to tend to detect mullvad's wireguard as 'openvpn' while mullvad's openvpn is undetected by it. Perhaps that's what the parent is referring to.

That would make sense because it didn't detect Mullvad's openvpn for me.
