This is a project that makes a profit by selling equipment, isn't it?
You must purchase an official program in order to participate. LOL

Thank you for your comment. Allow me to explain.

Generally speaking, the hardware is easier for the general public to onboard. Especially when it is well designed and simple to users. With hardware, users only need to plug it in once and forget it. The device can run in the background on the network level. Similar software-based solutions only function on a device level and require users to install a client on each and every device. And it may not interoperate with all of users’ home devices e.g IoT devices. Another aspect is that people prefer to own physical things. The PS5 still comes with a disk slot because people like physically owning their games.

Deeper Connect is also a layer 7 firewall capable of performing deep packet inspections. This is resource-intensive and it is best for it to be running on dedicated hardware.
