VPN Server Seized To Investigate Russian Ambassador's Assassination
A VPN server operated by ExpressVPN was seized by Turkish authorities to investigate the assassination of Andrei Karlov, the Russian Ambassador to Turkey.
Authorities hoped to find more information on people who removed digital traces of the assassin, but the server in question held no logs.
When the authorities tried to find links to other people that may have been involved, they found out that the policeman's Gmail and Facebook had been deleted. This happened remotely over a VPN connection, operated by ExpressVPN.
To find out more, the authorities raided the data center and seized the server through which the connection went.
Like many other VPN services nowadays, ExpressVPN doesn't store any logs, and this is what the investigators soon found out as well. An inspection of the server in question yielded no useful information.
