It's not a commercial vpn. It's a cloud server I spun up on vultr and installed my own vpn software. I used to use private internet access but with all the hacks and concerns recently I just decided to spin my own.
This is as legit as it gets. I pay monthly for a cloud server instance with a legit provider and run my own server. Many businesses use VPC providers to house their servers like AWS, digital ocean, vultr, etc so it seems strange to block the ip ranges of those providers.
