Solo founder publishes free self-hosted WireGuard VPN guide using Oracle Cloud
Overview
A solo founder publishes an X article explaining how to build a personal VPN with WireGuard on Oracle Cloud's Always Free tier, using the open-source coolervpn script.
The founder argues that a self-hosted server keeps traffic visibility with the user rather than shifting it to a paid VPN provider, which the article presents as the core benefit. The article is the only source reported so far, and it makes no claims about the setup's performance or security beyond this argument.
