> Ideal if you have the resources (time, money, expertise). There are different levels of qualifications, convenience, and trust that shape what people can and will deploy. This defines where you draw the line - at owning every binary of every service you use, at compiling the binaries yourself, at checking the code that you compile.

Wireguard is distributed by distros in official packages. You don't need time, money and expertise to setup unattended upgrades with auto reboot on a debian or redhat based distro. At least it is not more complicated than setting an AI agent.

What about SMTP, IMAP(S), HTTP(S), various game servers parent mentioned have open ports for?

Having a single port open for VPN access seems okay for me. That's what I did, But I don't want an "etc" involved in what has direct access to hardware/services in my house from outside.
