    I think the project has a better chance than most at being relevant long-term for a number of reasons, but also the maintainer is a pretty cool person!

  • Independent auditors confirm top VPN doesn't log your data
  • I understand the sentiment about the inherent conflict of interest with paying someone to audit your software, but it's highly unlikely that anyone is going to do that work for free. I'd want some evidence before taking your comment for anything other than opinion/bias. I don't use any of these products so whatever the reality is doesn't affect me, it just seems like nuance is too easily lost.

  • Pornhub shuts down in Texas... and predictably, VPNs benefit
  • Outside the issue of yet another competing standard to do the same thing, there's an inherent issue with verification in these kinds of apps. That is, how the identity is actually verified for the account. Is it the government itself, a for-profit company partnered in some way with governments, something else? The issue begs the question, is this something we should have in the first place?

    I don't think so. And it seems to me that those who do likely don't realize how much of a slippery slope it is to complete privacy erosion. Others are simply trying to live their life and this is very far down on their list of worries. Yet here we are, where services are built around the assumption that every user has a phone (and phone number).
