TOR Exit Node
Before we start, you will need a Debian 10+ VPS (you can get one on digitalocean for example), if you prefer to use your own self hosted server, make sure that port 80 and 443 are correctly port forwarded so that the public ip points to the server and not the router. Once that's done, go and ssh into your debian 10 server.
As a disclaimer, you need to know who allows these tor exit nodes, if you're going to pick a random host provider to host an exit node for you, you really don't know how the host may respond to that. Therefore it is best to pre-emptively see who actually accepts those exit nodes by looking at their TOS or by contacting them for additional information.
⚠️ Beware that authorities aren't always aware of tor exit node and what to do from a legal stand point. Before hosting an exit node, please take time to do sufficient legal research. People have been arrested all around the world and had a lot of trouble with authorities because they hosted exit nodes. If you are still motivated to get your own exit node, keep the phone number of a lawyer specialised in this field just in case anything goes wrong. ⚠️
Now before starting, you can use a domain name to access your server more easily:
[ 192.168.100.1/24 ] [ /dev/pts/13 ] [~/Documents/Github/blog/Conf]
→ ssh root@ech4.duckdns.org
The authenticity of host 'ech4.duckdns.org (178.128.46.38)' can't be established.
ECDSA key fingerprint is SHA256:z2HAncB99pfbAUfj9tJY7vlo8EGUzCIUxWBAnjAflcA.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? yes
