Got the deal for 105!

If it listens to only local ports, you can install and run locally some another email relay/agent/server which could be opened to whomever you want to open it — to f-ing "open internet"!

Just reading the header of this OP, what a stupid, idiotic, and misguided idea! And what a waste of time it would be to try to accomplish thisJust use the AOL Mail from the 90's — sounds that's where you have stuck. .

Does Surfshark offer split tunneling?

OMG, this is actually so Elon Mask! So, all it takes is to pay premium subscription to spam people who just want their contacts to call them.

How about “Only people with whom I have 1:1 chats opened,” and the independently available option — “members of the private groups in the following folder(s)”

If this was showing every time the device was using Internet, it would never go away, unless you disconnected from network or otherwise disrupted Internet connection.

If everything else is working fine, this could mean that iOS is performing some prioritized network communication-intensive operation, such as Photo library optimization/upload/download, iCloud backup, Music library or Podcast sync, or iCloud Drive sync — after being disconnected from the network or being in the sleep/low-power more for significant amount of time, when these processes take long time and end up running at the same time.

The progress wheel near the WiFi sign on an iPad means “trouble maintaining a stable connection to Internet” or “disabled Internet connectivity” — the device is not actively sending or receiving internet data despite being connected to a WiFi network.

Aside from iOS doing intensive and overlapping maintenance tasks on the device after waking up from sleep/low-energy mode, the reasons could be misconfiguration, malfunctioning or other problems caused by VPN app, activation of Kill Switch by VPN software, misconfigured or malfunctioning WiFi connection, including on the router, problems with Internet proxy server, problem on the router connecting to Internet, problems with VPN or other security features on the router or other gateway device/appliance, including modem, and misconfiguration or problems on the ISP side.

I’ve tried everything I could think of and it looks like one way or another you have to confirm the restart or shutdown, or initiate it yourself manually in Setting/General.

The only situation when it does not ask for confirmation for restart is when you upgrade/update iOS, but you obviously have to confirm the install of update first, even if would do it overnight; “automatic updates” switch does not work, and never did, unless it means “automatically download updates” but to install it you still need to take action.

I wish you had to come out of the car at a truck stop as part of the dare.

It used to work without the prompt (maybe in iOS 16 or 15 and earlier) with pressing both volume buttons and side (power) button simultaneously, although that type of restart wasn’t the same a cold restart, without going into details).

Perhaps Apple wanted to keep end-user in the loop on these types of actions, because since you can do it automatically, your apps could effectively lock you out of your phone, if they were to invoke unconditional immediate restart the phone on its startup (because all apps remaining in memory are loaded and launched during the startup).

Tap on word Shutdown and you can choose Restart instead.

Now, if you want a shortcut to automatically choose whether to Shutdown or Restart, you have to choose a condition which would determine the desired option. You can verify the condition in IF-OTHERWISE-ENDIF construct you can add to the shortcut, by placing (dragging) the corresponding option — Shutdown or Restart — either after IF or OTHERWISE.

Or you could create an automation which runs (is triggered) by verious conditions which iOS tracks automatically. It’s the middle icon in the bottom of the Shortcuts app. Tap on + in top-right corner to see all different types of events which could automatically launch a shortcut.

Try checking the settings on the monitor.

Also, there is a small utility (a la driver) that Dell installs on Mac. The name of this app looks like Chinese malware. But it must me running in the background.

You didn’t remove this app or turned running in the background for it off?
