How to use Bypasser on Mac
Bypasser splits your internet traffic into two paths.
One is routed through your VPN, masking your IP address and encrypting your data.
The second connects you directly to the internet, using your regular IP.
You don’t have to turn your VPN on and off, resulting in a smoother user experience.
