With news that the #UK is considering #ageGating #VPNs, here's your periodic reminder that you don't need to pay a #VPN service (and potentially have to do an age-check, in future) to have a VPN.
For the last ten years, I've just been spinning up cheap VMs running #WireGuard on cloud providers when I need a VPN, and then throwing them away afterwards, for a cost of usually less than 8 cents (USD) per hour.

@dan@m.danq.me I have one set up on Digital Ocean like this, the only downside is that some websites will automatically flag network traffic coming from inside a data center and deny entry. Reddit for example, as well as streaming video sites. Still, it's not a bad $5/M to spend.
