From the T&C:

"You are expressly prohibited from accessing DEVAUCT through a virtual private network or by proxy;"

WTF?

a) unenforcable. b) breaks IronKey Secure Sessions. c) breaks compressing mobile browsers eg. Opera Mobile etc. d) don't tell me what I can and can't do with my network.

sounds like some boilerplate we weren't aware of. thanks for bringing this up! will check it out and probably remove it. seems totally irrelevant, and i agree with your comments.

I was aware that customers reading the ToS is a little white lie, but I thought at least the company would take the time!

It's just c.y.a. copypasta. https://www.google.com/search?q=You+are+expressly+prohibited...

I doubt any early stage startup spends meaningful time crafting their own T&Cs. And if they do, they should probably reconsider their priorities.
