Routing your traffic to a server controlled by a US company is more secure than…?

We should maybe define what we mean by secure before suggesting these things. Also, we should speak about setups like this more genetically, maybe focus on the software that enables this type of thing (OVPN) and not some big cloud provider in the US giving you a cheap VPS.

FWIW, thanks for the images and clear explanations for setup. I just think in todays world we should dissect these suggestions more deeply.

I'd say routing traffic to a country that doesn't protect freedom of speech is probably worse than routing it through the US.

More secure than a number of countries and at least as secure as anything in Europe, at least if you are a US citizen.
