Lab index →Software should answer to the person using it.
MPLS products avoid behavioral tracking and manipulative interfaces. Infrastructure is kept deliberately simple, data ownership is taken seriously, and software is built to remain useful rather than manufacture dependence.
How MPLS works →About
Made in Minnesota.
MPLS LLC is an independent software company in Minneapolis. It builds its own products, owns its infrastructure, and answers to the people using the software rather than to advertisers or investors.
