Hello, @leyte948

You can also spin un an OpenVPN or WireGuard droplet and use it as a proxy to change your IP address and therefore use it when browsing the internet.

@bobbyiliev have made an article and video about this which you can check here:

Hi there,

Thank you @alexdo for sharing the links! In addition, what I could suggest is also using this 1-Click installation for an OpenVPN server on a DigitalOcean Droplet:

That way you will have control over your OpenVPN server.

Hope that this helps!
Regards,
Bobby

Hello there,

Also not to forget to list the articles for OpenVPN and WireGuard:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-and-configure-an-openvpn-server-on-ubuntu-20-04

WireGuard is a new VPN protocol that has recently been gaining a lot of popularity.

There are a couple of advantages to using the WireGuard VPN on your Raspberry Pi over OpenVPN.

WireGuard is much faster at making connections than OpenVPN, it can complete a connection within a tenth of a second.
