I mean, if you’re trying to defend against a coordinate government attack, you’re boned anyway. They’ll just break into your house and install a sniffer, or arrest you, or make your life hell.
That’s assuming they can’t just get into your home network through zero days, which an individual has no practical defense against.
Well seeing as all credit cards are basically subject to US law, you'd need to find a VPS that is going to accept say Bitcoin for server space. Perhaps one that is going to accept cash in the mail.
Then hope that said provider is reputable enough to be up to date on their security, and honest enough not to just cave under pressure.
Realistically the VPS solution fails simply because there is no obscuring of traffic. We all know that security through obscurity isn't real security. However if a VPN provider has 1,000 users using their IP block than any specific traffic is harder to isolate to one user. -- Presuming they are honest and not keeping logs.
Running your own VPS means that all traffic is owned by you.
