Mark, Andrew,

Thank you for sharing this. As the developer behind GhostLine, a system that 
has required its own vigorous defense against pragmatic criticism, I particularly 
appreciate architectures that force a fundamental rethink of a system's trust model.

Your work elegantly addresses the classic VPN dilemma: you must trust the operator, 
who becomes a single point of failure for both coercion and compromise. You haven't 
just mitigated this; you have made it obsolete by shifting the trust from the operator 
to a verifiable, deterministic process. The ability to compile a binary and validate its 
MRENCLAVE provides a proof of integrity that is a categorical improvement over the former 
model of promises and policies.

This is the necessary evolution. Congratulations on a formidable engineering achievement 
that sets a new benchmark. I will be studying your implementation closely.

Sincerely,

—
Hitokiri
