It’s more like a DNS as far as I know. They also had a service for opera mini j2me and Symbian to mirror webapps from a server (so it might be that technology). With how the tech works, I wouldn’t really trust it’s privacy (but it still was the only decent option in 2018, when I actually used it).
I don’t use it for privacy, I would never use a free VPN for that and even less one without a paid version (where do they get the money for the service?) I use it to bypass regional blocks or blocked pages in my country (due to piracy in most cases) and for that it works quite decently.
