Great read. Have you tried building your own VPN? That should address many of the risks with commercial vpns.

Thank you! Yes, I have two hosted in Swiss territory with providers I trust. I felt the need to write the article for the average person who has no clue how to spin up a Wireguard server though :)

Ha. Fair point - building your own VPN is not for everyone.

It is an awesome privacy flex though. 💪

Absolutely. It’s not even the building of the server as much as it is maintaining it and monitoring it. I suppose picking the wrong provider could totally do you in, but deploying it isn’t so bad.

You’ll love this though; one of my primary servers in Switzerland is quite literally in a data center that is INSIDE a mountain. Armed guards and all. No information on client collected, I pay in XMR, DMCA ignored, they totally ignore legal requests, etc.

They even did fastflux hosting for a while, if you know anything about that. 😈😈😈
