I have nothing invested in proving it one way or another. It is something I saw a few years ago, and thought I’d mention it now to warn others. If you think it went from honeypot to non-honeypot, then by all means use it. At the end of the day, you cannot fully trust any traditional VPN because they can do what ever they want and we’d be none the wiser, despite all the big claims. VPN’s are for watching geoblocked movies and stuff like that. That’s about it. If you want privacy, you’ll have to look into other things.
You just seem very passionate about the subject. Almost nobody would take that much time to argue in the favor of a small, relatively unknown VPN. But also you suggest that I’m incorrect when I say VPN’s cannot be trusted ultimately. Only someone who was interested in maintaining the “VPN is private” illusion would say that.
Anyway, I don’t care if you do work for a VPN or maybe even own your own. But it’s gonna be hard to push it in privacy forums cuz there are a lot of people who know better. Well, there are also a lot of people who don’t now that I think about it… ;)

I don’t think it was ever a honeypot, they contributed a lot to the early VPN communities, following both perfect-privacy and blackvpn.
I do not believe so, but to each their own.
Do you work for Cryptostorm?
No? Confused as to why you’d think that.
