## What Jamie wrote

This is an ambitious offering from Cloudflare. Their push here is performance, but they rightly realize that privacy is a significant concern of VPN users.

> Let’s acknowledge that many corners of the consumer VPN industry are really awful so it’s a reasonable question whether we have some ulterior motive. That many VPN companies pretend to keep your data private and then sell it to help target you with advertising is, in a word, disgusting. That is not Cloudflare’s business model and it never will be.

It’s not available yet, but Cloudflare has a lot of credibility to tackle a problem this big. Definitely worth watching.
