That isn't how VPNs work. Your ISP can see that you connected or browsed to your VPN provider, but once you establish a connection, your ISP can not see traffic that moves over the VPN. Of course they can monitor the size of your bandw

I think one of the biggest things swinging it are legality, I'm almost certain it won't be illegal to offer encryption services, but then there's a lot of things I didn't think would happen in politics lately...

Digital Ocean. It's cheap, easy, has an API and tons of great documentation. The web interface is easy to use, the new floating IP and free firewall (also has an API and UI) really tops it off. Had no real problems outside the maintena

I've been learning Laravel for some time now and use it for a few personal and work projects, I'm also new to the open source world and yet to contribute much - are you looking for contributors, or are you just on GitHub for the t

The descriptions are slim and there's no screenshots of the product in use, why would someone click 'Go' on a paid plan after seeing barely any information?

Nice project, I was aware MoD had a good presence around Reading as I have friends that work there, I wasn't aware how big a presence it was.

Very important point. In my workplace, often the smartest engineers are so focused on doing smart things, they forget that the data they're dealing with belongs to, or identifies, people. Got to make those yearly objectives/apprai

It's as safe as you are. I've been using DO for quite a while now, running droplets for DB, Web, cache (mem/redis) and plenty of other stuff, no issues - all downtime (maintenance) was minor and was pre-communicated effective
