Doesn't this program need to bind a UDP port on your machine? If policies prevent you binding ports I don't see how you'd be able to use this software...



I have no idea what you're talking about. We're talking about essentially fictitious IP addresses on synthetic machines. I think everyone's talking past each other here.


I don't really think people are talking past eachother, I think we're all trying to understand the point of this, and the article(and marketing on the website) doesn't make it clear at all.

Some potential options for "what is it for" come up, and others bring up reasons why they don't make sense.

It seems this is a solution to a very specific problem that nobody seems to have, which is why when people are trying to figure out what problem it solves they're coming up with 10 better solutions.
