A tutorial on how to setup a personal use only VPN server.

VPNs mask your home IP address, bypass ISP throttling, bypass ISP site blocks, bypass ISP caching, bypass parental controls and can help you reach services in other countries that you cannot normally access. They also encrypt and tunnel all traffic from your home into 1 single data stream preventing your ISP monitoring anything you are doing. This doesn't mean your data is secure however as data may still leave the VPS in unencrypted form, so you still have to practice safe browsing.
