    From what I understand tailscale is basically wire guard but made convenient. And how they do that is by managing you wire guard keys for you. So I would have assumed they could use the keys to access your network. HOWever while trying to look into this just now I found out tailnet lock exist and it says “When tailnet lock is enabled, even if Tailscale infrastructure is malicious or hacked, attackers can’t send or receive traffic on your tailnet.”

      How is NAT travelsal handled if you want to connect two devices via WG? That’s what Tailscale primarily does.

        Yeah true, that’s part of making wire guard more convenient. You have to have a 3rd connection for that I think. In tailscales case it the headscale server.
