    You really think thats the primary function for user data? Not like, billing?

      Billing? ID -> balance. “Very” important data for hackers. They had more? Like card numbers, names, addresses, etc? That’s a bad practice for VPN providers.

        You are surprised that a for-profit company that bills people on a RECURRING basis for a paid service keeps card numbers and billing addresses/names? How would recurring bills be paid if the info isn’t stored?
