complete the changes : !94 (merged) , thanks to !95 (merged) we will be able here to name the 3rd party VPN running always on.

Connect to third-party VPN app (e.g. some ad blocker like Blokada that uses the VPN slot).
Set the third-party VPN app as “always-on active”.
Activate “Hide my IP address” in Advanced Privacy.

What happens

Advanced Privacy says the IP address is hidden.

What should happen instead

Advanced Privacy should warn the user that any third-party VPN must be disabled first. Use the following message

Please disable the 3rd-party personalDNSFilter VPN in order for Advanced Privacy to hide your real IP address.
