it raises a number of red flags and question marks.. It seems it is designed more to bypass geo-restrictions rather than provide security. There is not much information on how security is embedded and how it protects the user's network (when it is doing the opposite by allowing others to use the internet connection).

Hmmm....aside from that, Deeper Connect Mini is in essence both server and a client that sharing bandwidth. And those server nodes configured as an exit node(IP expose to internet) will face all the implication from any legal or copyrights strike:

FAQ: What is the mechanism that protects users from becoming an exit node?

Users can disable some p2p protocol to prevent other nodes using its bandwidth to download unauthorized content. We use source portals to distinguish different types of traffic.


Personal Experiences: i currently running a Tor Bridge Relay , used to run "non-exit relays" which time to time tracked&blocked by The Great Firewall that affect my normal access to china sites. :s22:

Interesting. Why do you think it is the GFW block you if you are accessing contents inside China? As far as I know, it is more like the content providers if you are accessing geo-block contents inside China. For that purpose you need a going into China VPN like Transocks/SpeedIn/SpeedCN/AJS/Malus/etc.

I'm not alone, check out others ranting on PSA: Run a Tor node, lose access to Chinese IPs :grin:
& in-depth article on section 4.2 Blocking of Bridge relays.

My access to china sites restored after simply changing my public IP.
