Remote Content was loaded through your current VPN configuration

When in airplane mode on iPhone 12Pro and I open the mail app, I receive the following message when I open an email that was not previously opened, “Remote content was loaded through your current VPN configuration.” I do not have a VPN on this phone and do not understand why I would get this message only in airplane mode, when I am on Wi-Fi or cellular this message does not appear. Does anyone know what this is?

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 15

I think everyone has a skewed idea of what an iPhone protects and what it doesn’t. I’ve never seen the remote content was loaded thru your vpn until just a few minutes ago I was on a pc that is operating a weird operating system that mimics windows but is NOT windows at all. I was in the registry disabling some features and did the the remote access ones and pick up my old iPhone and there’s the message. The computer isn’t connected to the internet in fact it’s so old it doesn’t have a hardware network card that I can tell. So whatever you think is safe about iPhones and that we’ve been told is INCORRECT. I’ve had something on this old one that if you factory reset it it asks would you like to mimic factory


reset ?..I was like wtf does that mean?!.but it explains why if you let it sit by itself after the reset it will literally auto populate the device again on its own.

I’ve taken it to apple called apple called my ISP and my cell provider and they are all in some sort of bizarro world cause they tell me that’s normal. Idk what planet they’re on but that is anything but normal.

I only use the VPN services because of its extenisve logging and tracing because I am aware once someone is in you’re not getting them out and the mentally disturbed need a hobby and I’m boring so let them hobby away. But I would make aware credit agencies that some nitwit psychopath has nothing better to do than stalk you and try and ruin everything you worked for …lol

You don’t have an interest in providing merit to your responses? Just 10 years of having an account.

Not even an apple provided whitepage?

Please explain why on my work iPhone I am using a VPN


Please explain why iPhone supplies vpn config if it does what you say?


My response:

Using personal paid VPNs like Proton or Express are necessary when you have to use a shady big corp/school/etc. Wi-Fi connection.

They are cumbersome at times and you should reconfigure monthly.


I recommend going to various

reputable non paid tech sites so they can collectively concur a VPN is useful. I’m here cause I received the same notice on my personal phone with paid email encryption credentials with express VPN

I, along with most of the senior members on this forum DO NOT use a VPN on our personal iOS based devices. Coming here every day I see people having issues on their phones because they use a VPN.


That said, I do understand why company issued devices, which are managed under Mobile Device Management profiles, often come with required VPN connections, hence why there's a VPN Config location in Settings on iPhone.


I stand by my comments. I don't owe you any justification.
