Say goodbye to your VPN and hello to a P2P powered web
We’re rebuilding the internet so that you can say goodbye to your VPN and never again make the tradeoff between the content you want and privacy. Introducing URnetwork, a decentralized network powered by direct connections to people around you.
Hi I'm Brien, the founder and one of the builders at URnetwork. I was one of first 20 engineers at Palantir and have been building global infrastructure for over a decade. I started working on URnetwork out of a WeWork in Palo Alto, exploring the idea that a massively distributed, four-nines reliable network can be built with commodity hardware to be the most private, available, and secure network for everyday people. Along the way we've questioned every assumption and developed key innovations that scale to millions of users. With URnetwork you don't need to trust some company with your data. Instead we use transparency and better protocols to prove it.
Why does it matter?
I believe we all deserve an Internet that is inclusive, expressive, and free.
The commercialization of people of the Internet has been increasing for decades, and people are now targeted for maximum value extraction in every interaction. The incentive of the internet is no longer to be of service to people. People simply haven't had the tools to make a different choice.
I believe an anonymous, unfiltered, secure network will lead to a better Internet for people.
The goal of URnetwork is to make this new network private, available, and secure for everyone, anywhere. We have the power in our devices to create a better internet, we just have to turn it on.
