I run SSD Nodes (http://www.ssdnodes.com), which you can use to set up an OpenVPN/PPTP/SSH-Tunnel server for secure, private access. I've seen users in other countries using our cloud servers for VPN purposes because they got better, lower latency routes to most other providers (due to the optimized transit/peering connections at SoftLayer Infomart in Dallas, TX).

How did you see that?


One of the companies on our platform actually built an entire business around selling proxies for people in other countries to have better latency to gaming servers in the US. At one point they had all their proxy/VPN endpoints on our platform. Unfortunately they aren't in business any more.
