      Google sure is good at plagiarizing my work. I released @AlgoVPN, an open-source, self-hosted VPN solution, in 2016. I find it hard to believe @Jigsaw was unaware since I’ve met their engineers more than once.https://www.wired.com/story/alphabet-outline-vpn-software …

      Since I released @AlgoVPN, it’s attracted ~7500 Github stars, 700 external contributions from 80 contributors, and endorsements from @motherboard, @kennwhite, @TheRegister, @thegrugq, @TechCrunch, @lifehacker, and more.

      I’m proud of what we accomplished but taking @AlgoVPN to the next level requires external funding. I have been relentless in trying to obtain it. I started by recording a podcast, then bundled it with my proposals.https://georgianpartners.com/the-problem-with-the-tor-network-and-commercial-vpns/ …

      Dan Guido Retweeted Algo VPN

      As should be obvious, no proposals were accepted and @AlgoVPN has no external funding. Here’s one of the more memorable rejection notices, which grossly misunderstood the value proposition of a self-hosted VPN:https://twitter.com/AlgoVPN/status/918310804734308353 …

      I met with @Jigsaw engineers at 3 private events in 2017. We exchanged business cards, talked through our projects, and I’m sure I mentioned @AlgoVPN. As far as I can tell, they immediately cloned it, never communicated with me, then paid for a PR spot in @WIRED today.

      So, I guess watch what you say to Google? Like the CII, Jigsaw is intended to buy good PR for @Google, pursue Eric Schmidt’s megalomaniacal regime change ambitions, and distract bored Google engineers from dreary ad sales work. They have no reason to collaborate with you.

          I’m confused why you care... isn’t AlgoVPN a free solution? They’re validating a market need and not stealing IP or anything. Isn’t the goal for more people to benefit and use the tech? 🤔

          Googles’ Business Model is collecting and monetizing user data. A VPN gives them an even larger data collection than they already have. Just because their Algo clone doesn’t collect anything about the user now, doesn’t mean they won’t add that in the future.

          Exactly. I wish more people would pay attention to how truly evil Google has become. Gmail, Android ... everything it does is designed to collect data and sell it on. #notokgoogle

          I hope other open source projects like streisand or Algo will not stop development, now that omnipotent Google has a similar project.

          Google is breaking open source by abusing the trust. Look at Android - open source, copied from iOS and with a massive spy operation built in that developers can’t practically remove. Chrome/chromium is the same. #NOTokGoogle

          We tried setting up Algo a few months ago and eventually gave up. Do I understand correctly that it doesn't support Win7 clients? Similarly, the Google thing doesn't seem to support Linux clients, which is equally unacceptable for us. We ended up using OpenVPN instead.

          Google is very canny at copying other people’s work and using it to make even more money. #notokgoogle I feel for you Dan. This whole evil regime needs to be stopped. #deletefacebook #deletegoogle No more spying. No more IP abuse.
