      I was using chrome and thought it may have been webrtc so installed the plugin and it stopped showing the ip on some sites,

      I then tried firefox and disabled webrtc and that seemed better but its been a bit of a mixed result :-)

        Are you ok with this box using wan if your vpn is down? If not I really would suggest putting a block rule for your alias below the PIA policy rule.. That way your sure that box can not go outbound unless the vpn is up.

            yeah just below, use your same alias as source but destination would be any.

              I may be mistaken, but I think for that block rule to work you may also need to enable the "Skip rules when gateway is down" setting in System > Advanced > Micellaneous? The description for the setting is "By default, when a rule has a gateway specified and this gateway is down, the rule is created omitting the gateway. This option overrides that behavior by omitting the entire rule instead." And you'd want the entire rule omitted in this case, so that rule processing would continue on to the next rule (the block rule). Another kill switch option is packet tagging/matching:

                ^ agreed... thanks for pointing that out. Sometimes I forget to mention stuff that to me seems obvious ;)
