>How is Obscura different from existing VPNs?

Obscura’s design centers around this simple smoke-test: β€œIf someone put a gun to our team, are we able to give them your traffic information?”

Normal VPNs have the capability to track your activity and know your identity, including β€œno-log” VPNs. This means that users (often unknowingly) are actually trusting their VPN’s pinky-promise that they won’t be tracked. This is also why some privacy-conscious folks will tell you not to use a VPN at all.

Obscura is different. We can’t correlate your traffic and your identity, ever. It’s simply impossible by design. Obscura also works everywhere, whilst normal VPNs don’t work in restrictive or hostile network environments.
