Bold statement - how is wire guard not a VPN?

Yeah I'm really curious what his take is going to be on this one lol. Technically it doesn't have a layer-2 capable bridge mode like other VPN solutions like openvpn, but that's about all I can think of. It's still objectively a virtual network, made private by a keypair exchange.

Probably just blindly paroting something someone told him. Awkward way to learn that one lmao.
