🙂 Fresh Coat of Pixels!!! 🙂

Nym.com just got a facelift! Ok, not a full lift, but a nice touchup. Check it out. The web team has put in a lot of work to make the goal and value of the Nym project clear and accessible.

And after-all, building a private internet needs a little art and panache too ;)

From protection to surveillance: The UK’s Online Safety Act under fire 🥲

On 25 July 2025, the United Kingdom unleashed the Online Safety Act 2023, officially enforced by Ofcom. This marks a major escalation in state control over digital life. The Act embeds sweeping mandates — age verification, content scanning, and new enforcement powers up to site-blocking and executive criminal liability — that systematically undermine privacy, free speech, and access to legal information.

This isn’t just regulation — it’s a new turn in the surveillance-industrial complex.

Thankfully, decentralized VPNs like NymVPN can help you protect metadata like your IP address and allow you access information globally.

NymVPN v2025.12 is live

➡️ IPv6 support,
➡️ improved error monitoring,
➡️ and continued bug fixes for all apps!

This follows this week’s release of in-app payments via NymVPN for iOS. Check it out iPhone people!

Here’s a breakdown of what’s changed with the new NymVPN v2025.12. 👇
