My cyberghost vpn is under 3$/mo and has unlimited usage. It's hard to imagine any pay-as-you-go scheme coming even close from a cost perspective.
Managing your own server at 5$/month does not make sense from any perspective other than “privacy” if you believe that.

The use case I'm thinking of is when buying random sundries at the store, not ordering sensitive items.
Ah makes sense then! And would be pretty fun.
Since basically always, I'm still using PiVPN https://www.pivpn.io/ Is that out of favor nowadays, given new technologies like Wireguard have become mainstream? Would I be better off using this, or the Algo scripts that another commenter mentioned? ( https://github.com/trailofbits/algo )

I’m sure there are sites in the US, however, that block access from GDPR countries.
It is an interesting project and it looks good on your resume if you're just starting out in IT.

If a non-EU site finds itself subject to GDPR because of Article 3(2), they need to then worry about whether or not Article 27(2) applies to excuse them from Article 27(1). If not then they have to deal with the hassle and expense of hiring a representative in the Union. If they are indifferent to EU visitors but happen to get enough of them that 27(2) won't excuse them from 27(1), then it may be worth blocking EU vi…

Agreed. You're already setting up SSH and deleting it soon so why bother setting up the IPs, adding your public key, getting the server's public key, configuring iptables, and configuring wireguard locally when you could just SSH? Only benefit I'd see is wireguard would be easier to use on a mobile device, but the setup requires the ability to run ansible and do ssh already so... that's not really practical.
> why bother Last I checked, wireguard had much better performance than sshuttle. May or may not matter for your use case, but it's a reason.
Ofcourse this is only useful for a single user, and for devices that can use ssh and proxies.
