If I can order OVH VPS's and push 30TB/month through them... a VPN provider could do that,too. It astonishes me that they don't and instead offer 2343536 locations that no one really needs.
"Here at TacoShield, on our veggie plan we offered UNMEATERED connections!"
Mexican water plan.
Got any beefy plans?
i dont really get it, but you got a Thanks :P
Old joke about the bacteria in the water in the old Mexican Hotels giving people from the USA diarrhea. I forget what bacteria or what it was that was supposed to do it.
I was trying for a play on as fast as sh*t through a goose.
TacoShield.com is taken now
I really fail to see how anyone could start a company with what some of you are requiring.
Unrealistic expectations are sort of a tradition here
This will attract a lot of low-quality VPN providers like PIA, pureVPN, vyprvpn and the usual spammers when it comes to getting fake-reviews out and spamming their affiliates all over the place.
What you Americans use as VPN-providers is really just serving traffic directly to the security agencies.
If you read the latest posts about "vpn security issues" and then a company like PIA has to release 5 or so software-upgrades to fix them while old and really reputable providers (perfect-privacy, airvpn) didn't even have the security flaws in the first place you can really only bang your head against a wall.
The VPN provider market is indeed a very sketchy one. Very dubious advertising tactics, selling a product which is fully based on lies, etc...
It's also very difficult to make a significant profit for small players and I can see plenty of people seeing this as an easy to run business which makes an easy recipe for a lot of deadpools, specially from guys renting low-end VPSes to offer this kind of service.
But this has been happening during the last years with the low end VPS market anyway.
They can't. The thing is what can a small provider offer that's worth anything? If a user is OK with small, then just get a $5 per year VPS instead. It's not like installing OpenVPN, or whatever you like, takes more than a few minutes for someone who knows how, which I assume is most people here.
Maybe the China GFW will block LEB some day?
Remember I charge 1.5% of sales as the name provider...
If not VPN, then just a giant web-proxy like Squid running at your end and enforcing your TOS. Should give a higher profit margin than plain VPN services.
Holy crap...it is!
VPN is kinda expensive -,-
So the first offer is now posted...
http://lowendbox.com/blog/supervpn-10-off-vpn-packages/
PPTP only hosted on $2/month VPSes purchased from LowEndTalk. Terms of service and privacy police nowhere to be seen.
I'll include a quote from the FAQ...
Lol.
"Do you keep logs?"
"Depends what you are wanting to do."
How about no?
Dan you always get some funny stuff here.
Looks shady...but anyway
I must say, some of the comments there are something else. I swear that some people on the internet have no idea where they landed. Anyway, whether this offer is good or not is no nevermind. I'm critical, but still want to see what people can come up with.
