Hello! It's an old golden rule to make correlated wiretapping more difficult. The idea is that a criminal organization, or even some governmental agency, need more work to simultaneously wiretap your line and a node you connect to, when your line and the node are in different countries and different jurisdictions. Quite obvious if you start thinking about it. Kind regards

Hello! Some additional considerations on the whole discussion. It seems somehow paradoxical that some of our customers explicitly ask for Net Neutrality violation when they look exactly for a service capable to respect Net Neutrality with no discriminations against any protocol. As soon as Net Neutrality respect brings inconveniences created by third-parties, we are somehow invited to send such respect into the trashcan. We tend to think that it would be more appropriate and honest to focus energy and protests against those services whose administrators actively contribute to destroy the open Internet, with Tor indiscriminate bans, huge blacklists which block millions of IP addresses just because they are 'used as NAT' or because they are used to operate dedicated servers. It seems unquestionable that the concept behind such actions is an Internet where end-to-end principle and privacy are deemed as negative features to be fought. Remember our philosophy and mission: banning a server of ours because it's a source of problems appears as a very questionable action. It is the same error that some services do with Tor: to hit someone, they ban innocent users who love their privacy or who are forced to use Tor to bypass censorship in their country. If our servers or a Tor node are performing vulnerability scan, service needs to fix the vulnerability, not blame who caught it red handed. If our servers or a Tor node are wasting a service resource, service operators need to learn how to configure well their systems. If a service can't afford a method to manage spam, it should close the discussion system, it would be better for all. For all of the above, AirVPN will never violate Net Neutrality, and so we'll never commit any action to help "incompetent services". Kind regards AirVPN Staff
