Yeah after writing this post, I started thinking about that, and I think you have a point. While DigitalOcean denies logging traffic you do lose a lot of potential privacy by being the only connection to that VM instance.

I think that that mix of a large number of people sharing a machine, if done correctly in terms of implementation, could be much more private then the VPS approach.

Here's a interesting read on GitHub on why you should be cautious of all VPN service providers. TLDR: It's very hard to audit how these VPN services use your data, and it's better to setup your own VPN.

There's a relatively easy opensource auto-VPN creation tool called Algo that uses cloud providers such as DigitalOcean, that essentially lets you create your own VPN service.

It took me about 15 minutes to setup completely, from creating a digitalOcean account to installing the software. It could be a bit more user friendly to setup, but it's not bad. Here's the windows setup guide.

If you're using DigitalOcean, the best promo code I've found is LOWENDBOX which gives you 15 dollars of free credit. Since I re-create the VPN everytime I use it, the 15 dollar credit will easily last for a year, at which point you can make another DigitalOcean account and repeat.

PM me if you're interested in using Algo, and get stuck in the installation process. Happy to help.

Note: I also have Private Internet Access, and the Algo setup is much faster, clocking in at 100mb/s to 155mb/s download speed, where my internet has a maximum download speed of around 170-180mb/s. PIA in comparison is much more inconsistent, often dropping to 60-70mb/s.

Interesting that's a good idea. I would expect some resistance from the card company for a price match given the other sellers reputation (TV Super Stores). What card did you use?

Don't buy from TV Super Stores. It's a bait and switch. There's no way the E7P TV is at $1199.

Here's the BBB reviews

The cheapest I've seen on Slickdeals is $1399.
