  • I may at times only have access to HTTP only (No HTTPS) which is one of the reasons why I want another form of encryption.

    Encryption with most VPNs are more secure than HTTPS. Yes, the connection between the VPN server and the web server is not encrypted with the VPN and only HTTPS. However the encryption between the VPN and personal device is superior, not because it is relayed. My understanding is that HTTPS is “secure” for basic use, just like Windows 11 is secure. But not secure from five eye agencies unlike VPNs and other like systems like Tor and I2P.

    My goal is to have a user connect to a web server and have it not possible for the web server to know what is going on, nor can anyone snooping the packets in transit know what is going on. Not know the HTML structure, form field data, etc.
