Well... I think OP is misstaken also. But if the ISP of your VPN provider (at the endpoint) and your ISP (at home / where you connect to the VPN) is the same, I guess that the ISP theoretically could match metadata as OP suggests?
- jmnicolas 9y agoUsually you choose a VPN in another country than yours.
- icebraining 9y agoThat's no guarantee. Just from the top of my head: Vodafone exists in many countries. Deutsche Telekom owns T-Mobile (which itself exists in multiple countries) and a few others. Also, they may be the ISP of the site, in which case they can see your connection to the VPN and a connection from the same VPN.
- evgen 9y agoYour VPN provider could have an ingress point on same ISP and as long as egress was not on same ISP you are still fine.it basically reduces to "don't be an idiot and choose some cheap/un-audited/amateur VPN provider". If worried then use something like Streisand or other roll-your-own option and use a cloud provider unrelated to ISP.
