Thanks, I appreciate your kind words. Perhaps one day I, or someone else who runs with these laws, will be credible enough for a talk like that. Right now I'm focused on developing software to let us abide by Law 1.
With PIA and other VPN providers, you're after privacy for browsing, streaming, etc while our service creates a self-contained network with no "exit to Internet", at least provided by us.
The idea is to add to this network all the devices you would like to communicate with each other, for example:
- Your laptop and your cloud servers, so you don't have to open SSH to the whole world or use a different management VPN for every provider.
- Different cloud servers from different providers, so they can communicate securely with each other (e.g. frontend -> DB, orchestrator -> workers, etc)
- A Minecraft server and all your friend's computers, so you can play Minecraft in a private server hosted anywhere in the world.
- Play [INSERT OLD GAME WITH LAN MULTIPLAYER CAPABILITIES HERE] with your friends by adding all of them to the network and starting a LAN game.
This is more similar to products like Hamachi.
I'll work now on clarifying this on the FAQ and probably avoid mentioning VPN all along :)
I think a good idea might be to have a test:test account available for anyone in order to assess the platform first. In the same time start redesigning... EVERYTHING :)
