In its current beta state, Bitmask boils down to an easy-to-configure, easy-to-use VPN with Linux and Android clients. But it's part of a wider strategy that includes easy-to-deploy providers (using puppet, basically) A bigger picture can be read at https://leap.se/en/docs/tech.

The demo providers currently offer only VPN, but encrypted email is planned to be released soon.
