Friendly orgs/hosts will sometimes gift a cause anonymous space on a rack, with an Internet-facing IP, but that's pretty rare. I stopped using this method since while this set-up provides security, this would work against providing basic pseudonymity, which is something I desired. Right. I don't use my own VPN for anonymity. Tor is better there. I use my VPN when traveling to give me a (fast) tunnel through the ISP and over the border on relatively innocuous ports. The rest of the time my VPNs are used as LANs on the Internet, getting me through to machines around the world I need to stay in touch with that are hidden behind a NAT.
