While I don’t love the recent response by @obscuracarl I don’t think it warrants completely disregarding Obscura VPN or their potential recommendation.
People associated with good projects say or do disappointing things all the time. I don’t think its a good precedent to set to disregard a project every time it happens.
I think overall @obscuracarl has been a really valuable contributor to this forum and I believe, as of now, the good far outweighs the bad with this project.
