Does Surfshark & Co do their own transit?

[DStvNothingOn]

Hi All,

I was wondering when you connect to Sufrshark VPN with say a UK node.
Do you connect to there SA sever and then they use there own transit to your exit on the UK or do you connect via wireguard etc to there UK machine and exit there? ie does the International transit get handled by your own ISP.

If anyone has any insight I'm just curious.

connect to the VPN and do a traceroute and you will see who is carrying the traffic. I mostly use to use Windscribe and a lot of their network was via M247
