Lots of VPN services out there like the ones mentioned earlier in the thread have made it nearly as simple to install and operate a VPN.
Until the setup and functionality are automagic, we're not going to see broad use of VPNs by non-specialists. VPN functionality is built into pretty much every mainstream (and many non-mainstream) OS out there, including mobile devices. But it isn't something that's simple; users have to at a minimum install and accept a VPN profile, which means they have to go looking for a service in the first place. I'm wondering if perhaps major OS vendors/developers may start offering/OEMing VPN services, or at least distributing profiles in the same way as browser vendors/developers distribute CA certs? ----------------------------------- Roland Dobbins <rdobbins@arbor.net>
