It offers simple to use clients to secure your internet traffic against survaillance and to circumvent internet censorship. RiseupVPN doesn't log any user data and doesn't require a registration. +The software is based on [LEAP VPN](https://leap.se/), an open source VPN solution and is run by the [Riseup collective](https://riseup.net/about-us) which offers privacy preserving online services for activists since decades. + +## About the test + +This test evaluates if the bootstrap server used during the self-configuration of the VPN clients can be reached. The test also checks the reachability of RiseupVPN's gateways on different ports and transports. + +For the future we aim to use this test as a blueprint to offer a generic way to test the reachability of LEAP instances deployed by other providers and users who self-host their VPN. + +For more details read the **[RiseupVPN test specification](https://github.com/ooni/spec/blob/master/nettests/ts-026-riseupvpn.md)**.
