Has anyone tried Nym VPN? I know it’s different from Mullvad VPN, Proton VPN, and IVPN as it’s decentalized, but aside from that, what else makes it stand out from the others? It looks interesting and was thinking about trying it out, but I know it’s a newer VPN and I haven’t been able to find reviews about it and wanted to see if it’s even worth it.
That’s fine; in my mind, a VPN is a fully encrypted link between two private points, often routed over the Internet. These exit proxies being discussed in this thread are no more VPNs than TOR (which at least has the option to stay within its network). But since in this context, everyone is calling exit proxies VPNs, I met them where they were.
There are several inaccuracies in both of your comments. Please try to avoid using common networking terms incorrectly—e.g., a VPN is more than ‘a fully encrypted link between two private points,’ and Tor is not a VPN. Misstating these concepts can spread confusion, so if you’re unsure, please research before commenting.
