Emergency VPN

We aim for a world where everyone has complete control over their online presence and can freely express themselves without fear of censorship, surveillance, or threats to their safety. That’s why we launched an Emergency VPN program, where we provide VPN assistance to journalists, NGO representatives, and activists facing extreme internet censorship.
