Tailscale raises $100M

For anyone else who wonders wtf tailscale is:

> Tailscale is a VPN service that makes the devices and applications you own accessible anywhere in the world, securely and effortlessly. It enables encrypted point-to-point connections using the open source WireGuard protocol, which means only devices on your private network can communicate with each other.

It seems to take care of key distribution, nat-traversal, authentication etc etc

Neat! No sure how that is 'fixing internet' exactly, but really cool anyway

So basically Wireguard with automated key setup/distribution/identity management?

(btw. I love Wireguard - currenly using it to route traffic between my servers + transfer media between my home and my mother's mediacenter with both PCs being behind their own router - she loves it too as so far there were no problems hehe)

That, plus fanatically good NAT Traversal: https://tailscale.com/blog/how-nat-traversal-works/

But isn't that just part of Wireguard itself? In the end that's what's happening in my case when I exchange data through Wireguard between my flat and the one of my parents... .
