What is VPN Gateways?

VPN Gateways are public VPN relay servers, part of an academic experiment at the University of Tsukuba, Japan. They allow users to bypass firewalls and access websites anonymously. Volunteers around the world host these servers, using SoftEther VPN software, which can be less reliable or secure than commercial VPN services due to the public and volunteer-based nature of the network.
