Question

Does it secure your network at all times or only when other people are connecting to your PC?

Still works great. Played command and conquer in lan mode with my dad thanks to Hamachi

That is a name I haven't heard in quite some time.

If I remember right, Hamachi basically works the same as tailscale, it just facilitates you setting up a VPN between configured devices.
