Shutting down Australian based VPN Server

Posted on January 29, 2016 by richard

During 2015 we added a feature to our VPS Plans being a free VPN for VPS customers (10GB data/month quota), where customers could ask for or order on our sites a VPN service we’ve been providing for them in our Sydney Data Centre POP.

But now the new LNP Federal Gov’t have passed laws requiring a complicated scheme for “Metadata Retention” by Australian carriers and CSPs.

This domestic VPN is something Network Presence would need to retain req’d metadata for/about and given it’s a free value-add to our VPS Plans (since mid 2015), we’re not going to incur the large (Gov’t mandated) cost for this VPN service in Sydney.

We’ll contact the few customers affected by this by email directly and offer options and other information to help them move off this VPN service before it’s soon decommissioned.

Regards,
Richard.
