I would say that for most laypersons, VPN is used for two things: accessing your remote work resources and accessing content banned in your country.
As was patiently explained to me, Mycoria relies to quite an extent on the network effect: you can only use it if other nodes are using it, using it by yourself does not make sense. So the informed layperson's perspective is relevant here. That's why I insist on "dumbing it down" :D
- Jarwain 1y agoTo fit a layperson's understanding maybe the term VPLAN or VPWAN would work? Except I'm not sure laypeople really know what a WAN is. I think more people know LAN but then there could be confusion with VLANs. Names are hard. Personally this Mycoria reminds me more of a global tailnet I.e tailscale's VPN
