  "textContent": "At first glance, it seems like an interesting project, but:\n\n  1. Connecting to the 5 nodes is much slower than a turtle. Having more doesn’t offer any real benefits.\n  2. Agents of malicious actors can infiltrate the network by posing as “volunteers.” For example: the U.S. NSA.\n  3. On the official website, there is a claim: Privacy guaranteed\n\n\n\nAnnual audits and technical reviews ensure that the network is transparent, secure, and log-free\n\nAs it stands, it sounds impressive, but it’s superficial; let’s dig deeper:\n\n  * It does not literally mention synonyms such as “maximum,” “total,” or “absolute” privacy.\n\n  * It mentions the word “guaranteed,” but overlooks point 2 that I mentioned.\n\n  * Audits and technical reviews do not “guarantee” privacy, as the title claims. To reinforce my argument within the VPN industry itself, I’ll quote a few words from IVPN:\n\n\n\n\nAfter considering a repeat of this audit scope, we have decided that claims around ’no logs’ audits can be misleading, or at best ambiguous to customers. We often remark that audits are just a snapshot in time. Any VPN service receiving a stamp of ’no logs’ from independent evaluators can update their systems and start collecting sensitive customer information the following day.\n\nSource: IVPN infrastructure is ready for 5th annual security audit\n\n  * ….\n\n\n\nCarefully analyze the wording used on their website.",
