Netguard “blocks” the internet on selected app making it not able to access the internet. But it uses VPN to do it? Can the VPN see every requests made by the blocked apps?

    The VPN is just a local loop, so it intercepts outgoing traffic, directs it to the VPN, which blocks whatever, and then the traffic goes out as normal.
