This is interesting! What is your USP as compared to other VPN providers out there?
mariaterzi
@shushant_lakhyani hey there! thanks for the review! :) Existing VPNs have limited security features, are not transparent and don't do much to protect your privacy! with Malloc you can have a full picture of where you send data, block spyware, ads and data trackers, and additional security features!

@shushant_lakhyani @gerogia_christoforou Thank you! We hope you like it! we give a free trial for all producthunters :D

If the greek goverment tried to install on my smartphone a zero click spyware (Pegasus), will Malloc detect it?
mariaterzi
@angelosdidid for Pegasus in particular we use indicators provided by the Amnesty International and compiled after analyzing multiple affected phones. Indicators contain domains that the Pegasus spyware used to collect data, the ips, the files that were created and processes that were running on the phone. Of course they change their tactics and we also try to keep up! It’s a catch and chase game :)
mariaterzi
@angelosdidid oh absolutely!! πŸ›‘οΈπŸ›‘οΈ

I already use this app and I have to say, it's brilliant!! The people behind this app really cares! They update the app regularly keeping us secure! The best feature is the VPN Data Shield! Let's go Malloc! The future is bright! πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€

@johny_j Thank you for your support!!
Liza Charalambous
@johny_j Hi Johny, thanks for using the app!

I think such an app is a must have on your mobile device by default! Companies need to find other ways to personalise your ads experience, instead of tracking you. Users should have granular control of what exactly is shared from their devices, and this APP gives you the ability to know and block it. Thanks for this !
mariaterzi
@michael_e1 Absolutely! it's about time we regain our privacy!
Sabina Niklasson
Love this app!! I have been using it for a few hours and I am in shock of how many ads this app blocked. I have used adblockers in the past but I never really knew what was really going on!! Well done Malloc!!

@sabina_niklasson We are glad you like it! thanks for your support! ❀️

Themos Kolios
How does this differ from AdGuard VPN?
mariaterzi
hi @themos_kolios !! well we do a couple of things differently! :) using our secure and private vpn servers your online activity remains private, you can see all the domains you contacted/ or data from your device have been sent, and you can choose to block ads, spyware, cryptoming and other content. On top of that, we also offer spyware detection (on iOS only based on their online activity - if they try to send data to a spyware domain) and more comprehensive spyware scan for Android devices! Lets not forget that on Android we also notify you when your cam or mic is in use! All in all - we aim to offer a complete online and offline security app!
Themos Kolios
@mariankh but if I can see all the domains I contacted, couldn't someone else see it too (i.e. by hijacking my device)? Also, how long is my information contained on your servers, and is there a way i can request to purge this information?
mariaterzi
@themos_kolios Hi Themos, I fully understand your concerns! 1) we use state-of-the-art encryption for storing the domains (permitted and block reports) on your device - and you need to unlock the screen to see them. 2) We have a strict No-Logs Policy for our VPN servers ! Domains are monitored and provided to you as long as you have an active VPN connection. Then they are automatically deleted!
Maria Terzi
Finally a secure VPN app! :) Congrats on the launch!
hacke terr
Can you see where your data is going?
mariaterzi
@hacke_terr absolutely! connect to VPN and then check the monitoring console, you will see all domains contacted - categorised by Spyware, Ads, Cryptomining, Adult content and others!
kaliopi Goergi
Do you detect spyware like Pegasus?? Howw?? Congrats on the launch btw!!
mariaterzi
@kaliopi_goergi We do our best! :) We detect spyware based on indicators, such as the domains they contact, the files and processes they create! For Pegasus we are using indicators provided by Amnesty International!
