Sorry for the delayed answer. Feels like we need to make separate blog post about whitelists, but for now I will try to simply answer it here instead.
Most likely yes.
Not at the moment, but we been thinking about this. We could provide simple script that you can run on your own machine, however you cannot just choose "any" server. The ASN/IP range has to be in the whitelist.
Previous answer in #2 covers this question.
Not really. It is just not suitable for mass deployment. Once "whitelisted" provider sees enormous amount of VPN/proxy traffic they will start to investigate and suspend the service. We will already break their TOS once the server is deployed, because commercial "foreign" VPN services are 100% forbidden.
From pricing perspective it can be challenging, because we are basically talking about cloud providers with expensive bandwidth pricing. In most cases bandwidth is billed by GB and there is no options to upgrade to unmetered traffic with 1GBps/10Gbps ports.
And I was starting to think you didn't like me :) It's just that it's not the first time I've noticed that you're taking longer to respond to me. Or maybe it just seemed that way to me.
Yes, I think a separate article would be helpful, because your old answers are very vague, at least to me. They sound like politicians' answers :)
not even using SNI? @0xVirtualCake
