It takes a lot to admin you're wrong But that's what I'm doing today. We’re making a huge fundamental technical change to HydraVeil’s systemwide Wireguard with today's release. The new system has faster initial connections, less friction in failed attempts, and doesn’t require the previous sudo exemption policies. But it does mean abandoning our previous systemwide work. Which means I lost some money on the first version. Release Notes: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/big-changes-in-the-network-… v2.1.0 sha256sum: 755d0ab8803017cbef77ffbb0ffcf8814c0d35063be7c40fa9b881b73c540803

Thanks for writing in. There are some points to consider with p2p vpns. The first is that the upload speed for residential homes is significantly slower than download, and purposefully capped to prevent commercial use. The second point is that residential homes actually have more surveillance than datacenters, not less. As the datacenters aggregate traffic to routers, that may or may not be tapped. Especially smaller datacenters are less monitored. Also, residential traffic often has to go through datacenters still to get to the homes. While homes have direct ISP monitoring. The primary purpose of these types of residential home vpns is censorship. But there are alternatives that don’t have some of these negatives. Finally, it is not logical for someone to be able to afford 1G bandwidth, but not have the 1 euro price of our VPN. I really think it’s unsustainable to expect us to develop services for free. And if the user can’t afford 1 euro, they’ve got to reevaluate their choices.
