Add option to exclude trusted networks from kill switch
have a feature request for the VyprVPN client for Mac OS X which I think makes a lot of sense.
Right now it is not possible to use the kill switch feature in combination with the 'Connect on untrusted networks' features, because when you are on a trusted network it doesn't connect to the VPN servers and the kill switch doesn't let you use the internet even though the network is trusted.
I'd like to suggest an option to exclude trusted networks from the kill switch, so that I can have the VyprVPN app running all the time with the kill switch active, but not having to connect to a VPN when being at home.
But when I leave my home and e.g. sit down at Starbucks and my MacBook automatically reconnects to its Wifi, because it's already known, then the kill switch blocks all internet traffic until a VPN connection is established.

this should be a basic feature, i dont know why they just dont implement it. Especially when you look at the date this request were created, it's 2015. Now is 2018 and they still didnt fix it. I think it is not likely that they cant add it, but they just dont want to add this features.

Yes please! The kill switch should be disabled for trusted networks. As the OP states, right now you can only use one feature or the other, but I really love kill switch and want to use it everywhere by on my home network.
