&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;$0.01.&lt;/strong&gt; That&amp;rsquo;s what my first full test session of on-demand US VPN cost — a
cloud server created in ~35 seconds, up for a quarter of an hour, destroyed in
22 seconds. Billing rate while it exists: &lt;strong&gt;$0.006 an hour.&lt;/strong&gt; Billing rate when
it doesn&amp;rsquo;t: zero.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;No VPN subscription, no always-on VPS, no shared commercial VPN IP that every
streaming service has already blacklisted. The whole setup — four Terraform
resources, a hardened cloud-init bootstrap, a Tailscale policy and a Makefile
wrapper — was built in a single evening with an AI coding agent
(GLM-5.3 via &lt;a href="https://opencode.ai/"&gt;OpenCode&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
