Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Fast Servers
High speed and capacity servers with good bandwidth.
Pro Unblock any site
Bypass all known firewalls due to MimicSSL – special protocol that withstands DPI.
Pro No backdoors
Instead of compromised Open SSL, the company uses LibreSSL which includes modified libraries with no backdoors.
Pro Anonymous IP & location
Web sites & services will only know location & IP address of the VPN server but not yours.
Pro Single IP
Quite often with VPN services you get a shared IP, here you get one all to yourself. This means you are far less likely to be blocked.
Pro Cheap
Depending on your use case, a cheap unmetered VPS can cost very little.
Pro You control everything
"Is there logging?" "Do I get my own IP?" So many questions, easily answered by running your own service!
Cons
Con One location only
Unless you set up multiple boxes, you have to think about where you are getting your server. The advantage of many VPN services is that you can pick your location to get around geo-blocks.
Con Tougher to set up
OpenVPN in particular is not exactly trivial to set up.
