Shadow
Block VPN and Proxy connections on your server with the best antivpn and antiproxy plugin.
Shadow is a lightweight server-side AntiVPN/AntiProxy plugin for Paper/Spigot (1.20+). When a player connects, Shadow checks whether their IP appears to be a VPN, proxy, Tor exit node, or other anonymized connection. If the connection is flagged, the player is denied entry with a configurable kick message.
Shadow can also detect and block hosting or datacenter IP ranges separately from typical consumer VPNs, so you can choose how strict you want to be. Trusted players or staff can bypass checks with a permission, and the plugin supports in-game reloads for quick config changes.
Commands: /shadow reload (permission: shadow.reload) Bypass permission: shadow.bypass
Config options: toggle VPN/proxy/Tor blocking, toggle hosting blocking, custom kick message
