Delighted to see this emerge.

Unsexy and brilliant. I wish I understood your market more, but my only contribution is to say that an old client called me just today asking about VPNs and I bumbled around trying to sound knowledgeable. One swallow does not a summer make, but I have a feeling this is going to do well. Good luck.

IMO VPNs are a lot like backups, source control, etc. -- essential, but a pain to deal with. Then a company like GitHub happens and turns what used to be hellish pain into one of the best experiences on the Internet.

Absolutely spot on. Although I'd say Github is fairly symbiotic with Git itself - a tech leveraged by a brilliant service which pulls in more adopters to the tech. I don't know if there's something similar with VPNs.
