16 years of Le VPN: a birthday gift for selected customers

Today is a special day for us. Le VPN turns 16. We were founded in 2010, and one thing has carried us further than anything else: our clients. Sixteen years of growing together, of your questions, your feedback, your trust. Thank you for every one of those years.

A birthday deserves a gift. There is one further down in this post, and it is a good one.

The road ahead

At 16, the world looks different than it did in 2010. The threats to your privacy are changing as technology develops, and we watch them closely. Artificial intelligence is making online tracking sharper and more personal than ever. Mass data breaches expose huge numbers of accounts. Surveillance grows more capable, and censorship keeps finding new ways to decide what people may read and watch.

We do not say this to alarm anyone. We say it because we see these challenges coming, and we prefer to be ready. That is why we keep changing our apps and servers as the threats change.

Our answer is simple: build fast and stay flexible. We release new versions of our apps every few weeks, and we adapt quickly when the ground shifts.

A year of shipping

We hope you noticed how much faster the apps have been moving. Since September, new versions for Apple devices, Android, Fire TV, Windows and Linux have been arriving every few weeks, and the result is a long list of releases that are already live in your hands.

• February 2026. An all-new Windows app, rebuilt from scratch, with Stealth WireGuard, a kill switch at the protocol level and threat blocking.
• August 2026. 10 simultaneous connections on every plan, up from 5, at no extra cost, for new and existing subscribers. The same month, we launched x402 VPN passes: account-less WireGuard passes paid in USDC, for people and AI agents alike. We were the first major VPN provider with a live x402 integration.
• September 2026. A native Apple TV app, where one press on the remote puts every app on the TV behind the VPN. The Mac app was also rewritten from scratch as a native app with automatic updates, available on the Mac App Store, and every server now carries the newest Stealth protocol. This year also brought a native Apple Vision Pro app, now with Siri and the Shortcuts app.
• October 2026. An app for Vega OS, the system on Amazon's newest Fire TV Sticks, which launched without any VPN support. Our first native Linux app arrived too, for Ubuntu, Debian, Mint, Fedora and Arch, updated through the system's package manager. And we added day-one support for the iPhone Duo, Apple's first foldable.
• In every app. The Ad Blocker works in the apps on iPhone, Mac, Apple TV, Vision Pro, Android, Windows and Linux, and every app speaks 15 languages.
• Security. In October, Le VPN became PHP-free, so we keep less to hit, hold less data and recover faster. In November, the Data Breach Scanner got an upgrade: it now shows every breach in the app with its date, what leaked and what to do, plus daily automatic checks of your account e-mail and a Check now button. You can now protect your client area account with two-factor login and an authenticator app.

Many more features are already drafted for next year. This list is only the start.

A birthday gift: one month of Personal VPN, free

Sixteen years deserve more than cake. From today, we are offering Personal VPN with one month free to selected customers, while stock lasts. Each day brings a limited number of gifts, so if you want yours, do not wait too long.

Personal VPN is your own VPN server with a static IP address. Only you and the people you choose use it, and its address never changes.

Think of it as a pied-à-terre: a small place of your own in the city, always there when you need it. That is what this address gives you on the internet. It belongs to you and the people you invite. No strangers ever connect through it. And it stays the same every time you connect, for as long as you keep it.

• Bank, payment and AI chat apps. Your bank, payment and AI chat apps see the same address every time you connect, so using the VPN will not trigger extra verification or blocks in them.
• Seller and freelancer accounts. Marketplaces and payment platforms see one steady address, so your account will not get flagged because of the VPN.
• Allowlists. Put the address on your office network, firewall, home server or NAS, admin panels or cloud consoles. It stays the same, so the rules keep working.
• Share it with people you choose. Give access to friends and family on their own devices. You decide who uses it.
• Change the address yourself (coming soon). You can pick a new address right from the app, useful if it ever gets blocked somewhere or a service does not accept it.
• Right in the apps. Your server sits in the Le VPN apps next to the usual locations.

A fixed address of your own is a quiet kind of comfort. Like a pied-à-terre, it is your small place on the internet, ready and waiting whenever you come back.

The month is free and does not renew automatically. If you like it, you can renew it when the date comes.

To find your gift, open your Le VPN app and look in the server list. If you see the offer there, your account is one of the selected ones. Happy birthday to us, and to you.

Old enough to drive

At 16, you can get behind the wheel. So that is exactly what we are doing: taking the wheel and stepping on the gas, because there is so much more we want to build for our clients. We see the challenges ahead, and we already have many more features drafted for next year.

Behind Le VPN is a flexible team that loves being at the frontier of VPN technology.

Thank you to our clients for sixteen years of growing together with us. Sixteen years of clients made this company, and we are grateful.
