I wonder how many ran into trouble due to dubious anonymous traffic exiting their IP...
- auslander 7y agoWhy naive? What is wrong relying on volunteers? Goal is to hide your traffic from ISP and your real IP from internet. Volunteer's VPN do just fine :) > dubious anonymous traffic price of freedom from corps and govs.
- Renaud 7y agoNaive in the sense that they only address issues such as blocking LAN networks and email spam traffic and there is zero mention of what happens when someone anonymously abuse the service. The volunteer effort is laudable and quite refreshing but can a VPN relying on volunteers be ignorant of the risks those volunteers incur when they open their connection to anonymous traffic? I understand that this is an issue that every VPN has to face but there should at least be some mention of how that particular VPN service handles law enforcement and abuse requests, or do they expect the volunteers to face the consequences? Maybe I’m missing that point and it’s clarified somewhere?
