Commercial VPN services log your data, throttle your speeds, and charge you monthly for the privilege. With Tailscale and a $11/year VPS, you can build a private mesh network that routes all your traffic through North American exit nodes — residential or data center — with no third party involved. This is the complete guide: exit node setup, RDP to a remote server, working from anywhere as if you never left home.
