I disagree with you, the service being brand new don't give them the excuses to launch with unfinished service/details, no business that respects their users and their self would do that.
In the business world, first impression matters a lot, especially a VPN provider who you are going to trust with your data.
Yeap, but OP mentioned the fact the website is still WIP, it is his choice to broadcast and share it during this period of time, some users care, some doesn't. As long as the service I would pay for is working, I personnaly don't mind about the apparence of the website.
For example, the very first version of
https://mullvad.net/ was looking like that :
Things can change, no ? Why OP shouldn't be allowed to share his website even if it's still WIP ?
Operating a VPN with good connection speed and the right infrastructure is very expensive, IMO, very low prices are a red flag.
Your joking right? Let be realistic here, there is no way this service is going to be an excellent alternative to Mullvad, Mullvad is light years ahead of them, let's just take Mullvad no-logging policy as an example, last month they got raided by the Swedish Police[1] and no user data was compromised because there was none found, this alone has put them ahead of all the VPNs who claim no data logging and no proff to show for it.
I am not OP and I don't care about his business plan. 2 or 5 usd per user could cover the costs, if he manages to attract enough users. And he doesn't give many options about the servers location, it could be realistic from a money point of view.
About the fact Mullvad is great and trustable, I never said anything against it. I am using sometimes their service, and I said in my previous message : "
if you offer a really qualitative and durable service, and you don't do anything shady with your user's logs". So yeah, Mullvad is great, but if OP is providing a great service, the said service won't be not good because Mullvad exists. As I said, I am not OP and I don't personaly care about the future of his VPN to be honnest, but if the service is ok and if with time he gives proofs of good work, I don't see any reason to look at it with a negative point of view.
