0BLA / ABOUT THE SERVICE

Why 0bla Exists

0bla was not born to shorten links. It was born to address a simple problem: the web has become excessively intrusive.

1. The Reality

Most online tools rely on massive data collection. A simple click can trigger tracking, fingerprinting, profile enrichment. URL shorteners are no exception. 0bla was created to offer a clear alternative.

2. A Radical Approach: Zero-Trace

Understand how a link is used through limited statistics. Click data is pseudonymised and presented in aggregate form, without a guarantee of anonymity. The privacy policy explains the data processed and third-party services used.

3. Deliberately Simple Construction

Sober architecture. No unnecessary dependencies, no artificial complexity, no marketing layer. The goal: reduce the attack surface and maintain total control over how the service operates.

4. The Project

0bla is part of a coherent ecosystem: kachouri.com (global vision), itylos.com (Zero-Knowledge security), myproid.com (professional identity), roastmyurl.com (SEO/security audit). One principle: limit collection, control data.

5. The People Behind

Initiated by Mehdi Kachouri (security, technical sobriety, privacy), joined by Julien Gelee to structure the offering and move toward a truly Zero-Knowledge model.

6. What 0bla Will Never Be

Not a disguised tracking platform, not an advertising tool, not a data exploitation system, not a product dependent on opaque algorithms. If a feature requires compromising privacy, it will not be added.

7. A Clear Position

Simplicity over complexity. Transparency over opacity. Respect over exploitation. Sometimes fewer features than competitors but far fewer compromises.
