You can selfhost the control server, look at headscale, all the clients support this.

For FRP do you mean https://github.com/fatedier/frp?
What's FRP? Your source link speaks only of tailscale.
Just open the link about tailscale, in the page it's one tab below on the left.
Ahh a reverse proxy. Thanks!
Speaking of cameras, I got some Reolink cameras for $40 and they're great. I run then on a wifi that has no internet access, but which I can access through Tailscale, and all functionality works (except notifications, obviously), as the cameras have a LAN only mode.
About this KVM, I really like the Tailscale access ability, though I'm worried about the binary blob.
For remote access, there is no cloud. But you can BYO tailscale or FRP [0] (note: I really like the FRP idea, as it's trivial to self-host)
For updating, there is a central server. But at least the process seems to be manually-initiated [1].
I am not saying the firmware is backdoor-free, but at least it would be feasible to monitor/block all outgoing network connection attempts, and still have a functional device.
