I’m trying to contact the author of this project:

It *looks* like a free VPN. Could this be the vpn for which you’ve been waiting? Check it out. Let us know if you see a hole in it. Thanks. Just to clarify, a “VPN” (virtual private network) establishes a virtual “tunnel” between your computer and a relay unit. That way, it looks like you are merely involved in encrypted communication with the relay unit. It massively reduces the likelihood that your internet communication would be or could be monitored, and it really doesn’t raise your profile because lots of computers have encrypted streams going every which way – — like, every time you log onto your bank account web page.
