This is a compelling idea, but how do users know whether or not they can trust your service? You would have access to all unencrypted internet traffic from your users while the app is active.
- davepeck 15y agoHi kylec, There are a few components to trust. One component is trusting that the software does what it says it does. We're engaged with some reputable security consultants to ensure that we're delivering what we promise. We'll have (lots) more to say about that in the coming weeks and months. The second component of trust is being a trustworthy, transparent company. Building that kind of trust takes time and presence in the industry and the community. We've tried to strike the right balance with our initial MVP website (see the features page at https://www.getcloak.com/about/features/ https://www.getcloak.com/about/features/) but we know we have a long road ahead of us. Let us know how we did. In some sense, our problem of trust is no different than any other VPN, security, or service provider that deals with sensitive data. Trust is difficult and we'll work hard to earn it. Thanks!
