最近討論頗多的 NordVPN

最近 NordVPN 的隱私問題被拿出來討論的蠻凶的，應該是從「Is NordVPN a Honeypot?」這篇開始的…

作者一開始就有提到並不只有 NordVPN，而是整個 VPN 產業其實都有類似的情況，只是現在可以找到比較多證據可以推測 NordVPN 後面並不單純。

首先是 NordVPN 買了大量評論，後來被發現是假的而被移除，而移除後的分數掉了非常多。再來是 NordVPN 居然花了五十萬美金在 CNN 的廣告上，這對於 VPN 產業的成本來說很不可思議…

另外一個是 NordVPN 的母公司 Tesonet 就是做 data mining 的，「整理」各種資料拿出來賣的…

基本上這類服務只能拿來翻牆用 (翻進日本或是翻進美國)，不要認為隱私性有多高… 需要隱私還是得透過其他方式降低風險 (沒辦法完全保護，只能降低)。

Welcomes to Tesonet gang

We are incredibly excited about these guys. They have huge geeky hearths and were stuck with us for past few years. So let them say hi and tell their story.

So, what you are up to?

We at Tesonet spend our days working on a number of projects that are taking the tech world by storm. Nah, make it by thunderstorm. Tesonet is currently working on a cybersecurity and privacy product, which has a quickly growing user base worldwide – everywhere from Australia to Zimbabwe. It helps Internet users to easily secure their traffic with next-generation encryption technologies, so that they can browse without a worry in the world.

What is so crazy about your company?

At Tesonet we always think big. Putting this into numbers, the service runs on 10000 servers in 70 different countries, sending more than 250 GBps of traffic at peak time, totalling in 5 PBs of intercontinental traffic per month. All of this is made possible by using a decentralized infrastructure running on open source based platforms. On top of that, to this day we stayed a local capital Lithuanian company with no external investments.

What is it about NTA camp that drives you to be our sponsor?

We’re all about building a community of IT aficionados. We believe that all geeks should stick together for the greater good. NTA gathers tech community closer and each member has something to share.

Tell us what fascinated you the most at NTA

You meet all sorts of cool people - from techies to artists! You get to try their inventions, creations, and whatnot.

What kind of vibe you are bringing to the camp this year?
