Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/agrinman/tunnelto/issues/61

The website tunnelto.dev says it's easy and "free" to get started, whereas the truth is that you can't do anything without a paid key.

$ tunnelto --port 8080
>> Please use an access key with the `--key` option
>> You can get your access key here: https://dashboard.tunnelto.dev

Error: Server denied the connection.

Please remove the word "free" from the website, it's misleading.

1000% agree. This is not free to get started at all and it's a misleading bait for new users.

非常同意，就是欺骗，非常讨厌且恶心这种做法，但凡你一开始就说收费，我还能愿意付费使用，当你装好以后发现是付费的，这种感觉就是被欺骗，坚决抵制
