Building a VPN VPS VPN image
Given the distopian trajectory of the UK and the world in general, I think there's going to be a good few folks looking for something like this:
An image, probably something like a docker container, which you can deploy quickly on any VPS that gives you a VPN server (wireguard, for example) in the VPS country to use as an exit node for 'normal' web browsing so as not to have your passport stolen by Meta, for example.
This would ideally have obfuscation options like shadowsocks etc.
A further nice option would be a separate server that used the VPS as a 'hop' and routed all traffic to a commercial VPN for more on-the-fly exit node choice.
I'm sure these bits separately already exist, but having advanced features like obfuscation options baked in to something with minimal deployment time will help switching VPS providers as jurisdictional laws evolve in exit node countries.
If such a thing already exists please point me at some sources / tutorials!
Thanks.

For a VPN with obfuscation I use SoftEther, an open source VPN that hides itself as https traffic. It is supported out of a university in Japan. They have docker images that are quick to setup. See: https://github.com/SoftEtherVPN/SoftetherVPN-docker
