Israeli based corporation Hola VPN used its sophisticated system to exploit its end users and apparently just made a biggest legitimate botnet network on the internet. They manage to built a peer to peer overlay network for “securely” routing HTTP traffic through other hola users and bypassing expensive bandwidth costs.

The company enable its users to unblock censored sites by providing free VPN service that many of us are searching for, every user have agreed to become exit node once they installed its service – without knowing that you just become an exit note for all possible users on their network. However, the company become greedy when realized that they have more than 9,761,015 exit nodes, that is IP addresses,where one IP address is one device, representing strong botnet network in their hands.

They have recently started to sell API access to their exit nodes currently only HTTP requests via https://luminati.iowith following prices they also offer custom flat rates…



The Luminati.io provides API access to its customers so they can utilize Hola VPN exit nodes for various activities, network stressing (DDoS attack) is one example. This makes Hola very effective and strong botnet on the market, especially because it cannot be filtered or blocked easily as it uses real people’s IP addresses from around the globe, and not specific set comming from a large IP range.

In a recent post on his board, admin of 8chan Fredrick Brennan explained what happened, after reporting heavy DDoS from Hola VPN network.
