Bitmask

About

Bitmask is a free, open-source application originating from the United States, designed to provide easy and secure encrypted communication through a Virtual Private Network (VPN). Operating within the virtual private networks industry, its core product, Bitmask, allows users to choose among different VPN providers or start their own. The company's leadership and specific founding history beyond its country of origin are not publicly detailed, nor are its revenue, financials, or employee count. Bitmask distinguishes itself with a strong privacy focus, offering features like no registration required, no logs, no tracking, OpenVPN support, and encrypted email and connection capabilities. It is available on Android and F-Droid platforms. While specific market position and direct competitors are not explicitly stated, its open-source nature positions it as an alternative in the VPN market. User feedback, such as a review from June 2018, highlights appreciation for its open-source and privacy aspects but also notes stability issues, particularly on Mac at version 0.10, with users expressing hope for future improvements.
