#VPN #privacy

I am auditioning Obscura VPN. And even though I don't need yet another one (lol) I might just need to keep it! 😁

It does something unique. They partner with Mulvad and use their servers as exit nodes.

With a standard VPN they know your source IP. And they decrypt the data on the exit node. So you have to trust they do not log your traffic.

Obscura's input node knows your IP but cannot decrypt your data. And the Mulvad exit node can see cleartext data but does not know who you are.

Clever.

And they take #BTC #lightning as well as #Monero. So you can maintain an account with great privacy.

One downside is native apps only exist for MacOS and iOS. But I use wireguard anyway...

So far I like it. (There are 25% codes out there... Its a bit pricy without that)
