Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Appreciate the detailed answer.
You're right, OpenWRT will not hide but let's say protect my home computers from being monitored.
Also, VPN is a must and need to figure out the best way to handle that.
I don't think they will forbid me to bring the Pi.
I don't think it's usual to forbid bringing hardware. And in some (many?) internet-restricted countries VPNs and things are also not illegal of themselves, and still less punishable normally. Because practical reality is foreigners have a variety of reasons for circumventing restricted internet and the state's interest is mostly in restricting their own citizens.
Depends on the hardware... Copy machine is forbidden for example.
Wow. That could be a hangover from laws to stop independent printing press and newspaper. I've come across that once.
