I got this notification today and I got concerned that my wifi connection dropped. Then I noticed that the VPN indicator was gone from the top bar. I think this notification was related to that.

It might be better to make this clearer.
Comment 1 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 14:08:48 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of  gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
