Both with NordVPN and ExpressVPN causes a rule in iptables which allows INPUT connections from all protocols and from every source (see text below). Why is this and is it unsafe? I am quite new to this.
Chain INPUT (policy DROP)

REJECT udp -- anywhere anywhere reject-with icmp-port-unreachable

Try the same with this code
iptables -v -L
you might find that it has more to do with localhost or the packets it will accept from your vpn server or router. ie UDP and TCP
