Our VPN servers are still online and running smoothly. We're still under beta development and are working on adding new features to our client and website.
That's interesting - I was just thinking about this a few days ago and wondering how it was turning out. Glad it's still going well. Is there any roadmap or idea on when this will become a paid/freemium service?
We are hoping within June we will become a premium service. We are still developing features for Windows & MacOS.
We will make announcements on social media, discord, and forums once we have transitioned into a premium service.

In the beginning of next month, 1-5 December new servers will be added. There will be at least added 1 server in each of these locations: Singapore, San Francisco, and Frankfurt. We will add 1-2 more servers based on what the majority of our users want so please suggest one or multiple locations, thank you!
Are you looking for suggestions to add a server to an existing location or to add a server to a new location? In the former case, in my experience, Switzerland is one of the best locations you could possibly add servers to. I know for a fact that many people, especially those in Europe, use Switzerland along with the Netherlands for their VPN. In the latter case, I would like to suggest adding different locations inside Russia. Different places in Russia can result in much different latencies out of the sheer size of the country.
Yes, I am looking for suggestions to add more servers in new locations. Switzerland and Russia will have the highest priority as these locations seem to be very popular. Singapore will also be added. Unfortunately, we might not get these additional locations added before the end of December as we are getting a little delayed with the desktop client development.
In my opinion, and depending on the demographic that you are targeting, you should be placing more emphasis on the actual service than on the desktop clients. Of course, I do not actually know exactly what your development team is working on, but VPN clients already exist, and given how your VPN is OpenVPN-hosted, you could easily just use the OpenVPN client as the desktop client. You could also add features to your VPN service such as intranet communication before the internet (assuming you don't already support it).
Hello, sorry for the late reply.
The available OpenVPN client lacks many nice-to-have features. we still have a long way to go before all our features are implemented. We will implement different things such as; a way to bypass firewalled internet access and kill switch. I believe we will have to resources to begin on this in January as it's expected to have a full-time employee there. We have made many improvements to the MacOS X client in regards to stability and usability but none of those changes have been released to the public yet.
We decided not to add any more servers this month as there are some things we want finished/improved first.
We have also stumbled across this project, https://mysterium.network/ and it looks very interesting at a first look. I will spend some of the next days to see if this is technology is something we somehow can utilize in our software.

Almost all VPN companies keep records, there is no problem keeping records. Are there ads on the VPN?? The ads are sometimes very annoying. I will install the VPN according to whether it is an advertisement or not.
How there is no problem on a VPN keeping records? Why would you use a VPN if you don't care about your privacy (which is what you are saying)? Should Tor start keeping logs aswell?I wouldn't use this service for nothing in the world. Even a few major VPN providers in the world have been found keeping logs and cooperating with the FBI or governments. Imagine what a random and free "VPN provider" will do with your data... Remember: "If you don't pay for the product, you are the product".
if you want real privacy,you should go buy VPNs that cost over 250$ a year
and there is no garantee with them either
all of the free VPN services and majority of the paid but cheap ones are collecting data and logging your activity
don't act surprised here,its the prose of life,nothing is free in this world and even if you pay for the product,you can be the product
if you do not do anything that is illegal ot requires additional privacy -you can use it no problem just for streaming or torrenting etc.

I like your services but I wanted to ask you one question. How do you make money when you aren't charging for your services? You must have servers which need to be maintained on regular basis. Without charging you can't afford to run those for more months.
The maintenance is not too bad. We make money from our fulltime jobs and the monthly expenses are minimal, so we can easily afford to run this. The service has been up since start August.

I'll give it a try.A paid VPN is not exactly safer than a free one anyway.And I understand its market strategy providing free services.
I wish you success in the business.
I wish you success in the business.
A paid service might not necessarily be safer or more secure than a free one, but usually when you pay for a service, the tier for which you pay gives you a guarantee for some sort of level or tier of service (for example, a certain amount of bandwidth or speed on a VPN such as this one) and the service provider is more dedicated towards maintaining that tier. Of course, this is going to vary depending on who we are talking about, but given what I know so far about WhoAmI, I feel good about purchasing from them.
Feel free to PM me once a paid version is out!
I will remember to do this, and thanks!
Beta phase, only a few servers can be choice, I give a little test and have no any problems. Personally, I feel that the UI is pretty cool.
I'm glad that you liked the UI and had no issues using the VPN. If you have any suggestions please let us know so we can improve it.
I think that most of all this service will be enjoyed by users from Russia. Therefore, will wait for the addition of servers that are closer to them.
We can add a server closer to Russia if you or anybody else has suggestions to the location please let us know.
NOTE: We slowly add new functionality to the VPN and fixing known bugs. The MacOS client got new functionalities, a settings page where there is a variety of options for configuration of the VPN - It's not released yet but it will be out soon.
