3rd Party Audits

By who? Who is auditing the auditors? That’s not to say audits aren’t good, but when the code is proprietary, a lot of trust is required. I would prefer banking on solid, open tech which the TLS standard is. There is still use cases for VPNs, but outside like streaming piracy, you might be better served by the Tor network.

Yeah, I don’t trust proprietary server backend. Also I2P is a good option that should be less slow under the traffic of thousands of users.
