Fair point! - With a TURN/relay, you’re introducing a single, purpose-built box that: - sees all the tunnel metadata for many users (IP pairs, timing, volume), - is easy to log at or subpoena/compel, - and becomes a natural central chokepoint if someone wants to block the system. - Without that relay, your traffic still crosses random ISPs/routers, but: - those hops are *generic Internet infrastructure*, not “the TunnelBuddy relay”, - there’s no extra entity whose whole job is to see everyone’s flows.
