Well, you can use 300 VPN connections. I don’t see material difference between multiple subnets issued by _your_ ISP, vs routed via _other_ ISPs (aka VPNs).

Look:

- The subnet limit rule was introduced to prevent high node concentration under the same roof. The node math works assuming most nodes are uncorrelated.
- Using VPN to bypass this rule was therefore frowned upon.
- But using multiple subnets from ISP is OK with Stroj?

Good to know… Good… To… Know… 😏

Storj needs to make the policy clear.
