I kind of feel bad when this project gets a bad rap online. Lets look at the pros and cons :

Pros

1. Very fast

Cons

1. Author looks unstable. (S)He may leave the project causing technical debt. Mitigation : Use the proxy in some standard way ?

2. Author's criticism of open source. Seriously ? You will not use someone's software because of his/her political opinion ?

3. Non-open source. How many of us use Windows ? Linux with binary blobs ? Fully open processors ?

4. Author seems conceited. So what ? (S)He managed to do something no one else has, shouldn't (s)he be proud ?
