So as a few people have asked, this actually lets us use a variety of client-side unblocking techniques (like inbound request modification) that browser extensions can't (due to extension API limitations), and effectively unblock publications that the browser extensions don't (can't) — think major ones like WaPo and Bloomberg. The app also works across all browsers, not just Chrome / Firefox. As an aside, due to limitations caused by how cellular networks handle IPs, it's next to impossible for these sites to implement IP-based metering without severe adverse side effects, but the proxy does give very fine-grained control over how the user is presented to the end-site (including apparent IP address).

Right now, we don't make money or monetize at all, and are still exploring options. For the foreseeable future, we're 100% focused on growth and plan to raise VC funding to sustain operations. Ultimately, we want to find a monetization solution that works well for everyone and keeps our interests aligned with the best interest of our users.
