The authorities in #Russia seek to control the internet traffic and censor whatever is going against the leading party.
Aleksandr Litreev, a popular software developer is now building a #decentralized#VPN for Russian citizens and other oppressed people around the world, in the fight for democracy.
The Solar Labs platform will allow people around the world to host their own VPN servers, for which they'll be paid with Solar Labs cryptocurrency tokens.
If enough people from a variety of countries host their own VPN servers, it'll be impossible for all servers to be taken down at once.
"Even if the government will do whatever it takes to block our service, they will not succeed unless they just shut the whole internet for the whole country," he said.
Solar Labs is designed to be useful not just for Russians, but also Iranians, Chinese and Belarussians, all of whom face strict internet #Censorship.
Što je #centralizirani#VPN?
VPN je bitan alat za Internet privatnost.
VPN je posrednik između #internet korisnika i #weba. Korištenjem VPNa internetski se podaci s vašeg uređaja kriptiraju i anonimno šalju putem VPN poslužitelja prije nego što stignu na odredište.
Ista pravila primjenjuju se kada podaci dolaze s web stranice: podaci moraju proći kroz #centralizirani VPN poslužitelj prije nego što vam se vrate.
Centralizirane VPNove kontroliraju i njima upravljaju centralizirani subjekti (obično privatne tvrtke).
Te tvrtke svojim korisnicima omogućuju pristup skupu privatnih poslužitelja putem kojih se upravlja njihovim VPNom.
What is #centralized#VPN?
VPN is an essential tool for Internet #privacy.
VPN is an intermediary between #internet users and the #web. By using a VPN, Internet data from your device is encrypted and sent anonymously through the VPN's server prior to reaching its destination.
Same rules are applied when data is coming from a website: data has to pass through the #centralized VPN servers before coming back to you.
Centralized VPNs are controlled and operated by centralized entities (usually private companies).
These companies provide their users with access to a set of private servers through which their VPN is operated
1/4 Vlasti u #Rusiji nastoje kontrolirati internetski promet i cenzurirati sve što je protiv vodeće stranke. Aleksandr Litreev, popularni softver programer, sada gradi #decentralizirani#VPN za ruske građane i druge potlačene ljude širom svijeta, u borbi za demokraciju.
2/4 Najnoviji projekt Litreeva je @solarlabs_team, decentralizirani VPN temeljen na #blockchain i potaknut kriptovalutama. Platforma Solar Labs omogućit će ljudima diljem svijeta da ugoste vlastite VPN poslužitelje, za što će im biti plaćeno tokenima kriptovalute Solar Labs.
3/4 Ako dovoljno ljudi iz različitih zemalja ugosti vlastite VPN poslužitelje, bit će nemoguće ukloniti sve poslužitelje odjednom.
"Čak i ako će vlada učiniti sve što je potrebno da blokira našu uslugu, neće uspjeti ako jednostavno ne zatvore cijeli internet za cijelu zemlju".
