Privacy Revolution: The Internxt Journey With Founder and CEO Fran Villalba Segarra

Internxt is creating a digital world that respects user privacy by making the ultimate web-3 privacy-first suite a reality. Internxt Drive, Mail, Send, Meet, Cleaner, Antivirus, VPN, and more.Fran Villalba Segarra (Spain, 1997) is the Founder and CEO of Internxt. He recently joined the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to talk about how to make the switch to the post-quantum zero-knowledge encrypted internet suite with Internxt.Internxt is one of the fastest-growing web3 startups, currently being valued at over €40M and offering its services to over a million users. Launched in 2020, the company has grown sustainably, at a steady 100% YoY rate to date. Fran is part of the Forbes 30 Under 30 2024 list and is one of the most well-known, reputable tech entrepreneurs in the space.In this episode Fran discussed the company's mission to create a privacy-respecting digital world, offering alternatives to major tech companies. Internxt provides cloud storage, VPN, and antivirus services with zero-knowledge client-side encryption, meaning they cannot access or sell user data. Segarra shared that his personal experience with a data breach at a previous company inspired him to build Internext to address the widespread issue of data insecurity and privacy violations by large tech entities. He highlighted that Internext recently became the first cloud company to offer post-quantum encryption, enhancing security and aligning with a "trustless" philosophy where users retain ultimate control over their data.Segarra also detailed Internxt's crypto strategy, which includes building a Bitcoin reserve through crypto payments and mining. He explained that Internext accepts nearly all cryptocurrencies via a partnership with Coingate, converting all crypto payments into Bitcoin for their reserve. Segarra emphasized the advantages of being an EU-based technology company due to the strong privacy protections offered by GDPR, which he believes surpasses those in other regions like the US or even Switzerland.Looking ahead, Segarra outlined Internxt's product expansion plans, including individual, business, and family subscriptions, with lifetime plans offering bundled services like VPN, antivirus, and upcoming features such as Internxt Meet, Internxt Mail, and a device cleaner, aiming to provide a comprehensive Google suite alternative. Segarra encouraged users to try Internxt's services, emphasizing their innovative, disruptive, and user-friendly nature, and highlighted the availability of promotional deals and a free 1 GB plan for testing.To learn more about the company visit internxt.com and follow the team on X.
