NetShade VPNs should be working again in ~20 minutes. The clock on one of our servers was slightly incorrect, and this was was causing certificate validation errors.

If NetShade for Mac has been down for you, please update to the latest version, 8.5.1. "Check for updates…" under the NetShade menu. New certificate chain in place.

Firespot was sending too many notifications over the past 24 hours or so. Had to do with the new Canada fires. It's been fixed now. firespotapp.com

The NetShade iOS issue is now fixed. Switched all our server certificates from LetsEncrypt to ZeroSSL. (It wasn't really LetsEncrypt's fault, but we had to change to get back up and running ASAP.)

NetShade VPN on iOS is not connecting, due to: letsencrypt.org/docs/dst-root-… Looks like there's a bug in iOS. I've filed a bug report with Apple, but in the meantime I will work to switch all our server certs to something other than Let's Encrypt, to get it working again. Update soon.

Firespot has been crashing and/or not loading fires for the past hour or so. Server issue. Fixing ASAP- should be back online within 1-2 hours.

Just released NetShade 8.4 for iOS to fix a bug with in-app purchase. If you made a purchase in 8.3.2 and it didn't go through, you can download 8.4 and the purchase should complete.

We just released NetShade DNS. The first iOS app to use Apple's new encrypted DNS support in iOS 14. This patches the last big privacy leak on the Internet: insecure DNS. A fun new way to keep marketers from spying on you: raynersw.com/netshade_dns

NetShade and other Things should be back online now. Some intermittent downtime possible over the next hour or so as the servers all get on the same page.

At the datacenter fixing our central server. Going well so far (as far as critical hardware failures go.) Revising the ETA: should be back up within the next 2 hours.

Our central server is down due to a failed SSD. NetShade will be intermittent/glitchy without the central server but may still work. Backups are in place and our data is secure- working to restore full connectivity ASAP.
