I'm sorry for being negative, but it feels to me just as a publicity stunt.
No serious product, just a proxy for Google, while it is interesting not a real solution.
But as a marketing tactic to promote your VPN it is an interesting move.
- xlt 1y agoA proxy for Google is a product if it provides additional features Google alone does not provide... in this case: Privacy
- lolinder 1y agoA caching proxy for Google is a real solution for a real problem. It might not be a solution to a problem you have.
- jeanlucas 1y agoIt solves a problem for a niche that you assume I don't have. But it has no real way to monetize and is likely to be shut down as soon as the marketing/publicity objectives are not aligned anymore. That's what I was trying to point out.
- mmooss 1y agoMaybe Mullvad has other interests too?
- mystified5016 1y ago> No serious product, just a proxy for Google, while it is interesting not a real solution. Sure
- skeaker 1y agoNot sure what you mean by this, it is a real thing you can actually use so obviously it's not "just a publicity stunt."
- jeanlucas 1y agoI mean I don't see it as a viable product and as soon as costs go high and/or the publicity expectations are met it will be shut down.
- INTPenis 1y agoIt's not a publicity stunt when they're using the technology they helped develop to run their search servers completely securely and without any stateful data.
- mmooss 1y agoIt's been running for two years, if I understand correctly.
- afroboy 1y agoI don't know i just tried to search "free anime streaming website" and just did it in the first result. i guess it working as intended.
