What Meile dVPN is
Meile is a desktop dVPN client published by MathNodes L.L.C. under the GPL 3.0 licence; it connects to nodes on the Sentinel network that are run by independent operators and pays them from a wallet built into the app. Subscription plans are listed from $3.14 per month and the plans page says they are payable in cryptocurrency only, although the privacy policy also describes token purchases through Stripe. The privacy policy says the app sends a ping containing an app ID, operating-system flag, timestamp and an IP address that is discarded after a location lookup, and that no identifiable information on users is stored. The official address redirects to the developer's own site.
