Taking Control of Online Privacy and Security

When hosting services that need to be accessible from the internet, it is crucial to consider potential privacy and security risks.

In such cases, worries about NSA reading traffic are valid, but other aspects of life may attract more interest from them. For enhanced control and security, consider running tail scale on a VPS, connecting it with tail scale inside LAN, and using a reverse proxy on the Cloud VPS. This way, you can publicly expose services while maintaining control over TLS and DNS security, ensuring a higher level of ownership and security compared to using Cloudflare.
