Lies vs. Statistics: VPN Virtual Server Locations

Hosting a RIPE Atlas probe means you will generate credits, which you can then spend on measurements. All Atlas measurements require those credits as a form of payment. In short: there is no free API.

You can also receive credits as a donation, e.g. by someone who hosts a probe.

This is an interesting article and I’m sure someone with a constant supply of credits would surely donate a few of them, for you to continue this research.

Thanks. That's what I thought.

I gather that there are lots of RIPE Atlas probes. So yes, it'd be very cool if someone would donate credits. However, there is the fact that commercial use requires approval from RIPE. And that would likely include work done for hire.
