Sort of like when Amazon entered cloud space. For PH it makes sense due to them already have infra to support it especially video streaming. The challenge with privacy VPNs is a matter of trust.

>So wait, as a UK citizen I can use Pornhub's VPN to circumvent the UK Government's "Porn Filter", a system that's run by..... Pornhub. I had no idea that PornHub is in charge of filtering adult content for the UK government. Got any more info about this relationship?

No one should care as long as you do your job.
I can think of many things one might do on a VPN that an employer might and probably should care about
But if you hired someone you've given them a tremendous amount of responsibility and power, if you can't trust them to do their job without monitoring everything they do then you should just fire them and hire someone more trustworthy.

#25> “VPNhub is free and unlimited, anonymous and easy to use, [...] a good number of [people] use [VPNs] to circumvent and bypass restrictions to access adult content. It only makes sense that they use Pornhub’s.” So wait, as a UK citizen I can use Pornhub's VPN to circumvent the UK Government's "Porn Filter", a system that's run by..... Pornhub.

I think if more peopled used TOR, and also ran public exit nodes and/or relays, it will work better than private VPN companies.

Trust but verify, as Reagan used to say. We give even more power to the presidents and senators, but imagine what would happen in there was not plenty of people around to monitor what they did with that power.

#28It might be a good time to mention that Algo VPN now supports Ubuntu 18.04, many new cloud providers, and soon (days) will have Wireguard support. https://github.com/trailofbits/algo

I could imagine cryptocurrency potentially offering a solution to this which solves both issues of trust and economics, but it would be a challenge to guarantee its security.
