Shameless plug: VP.NET [1] runs in a trusted execution environment (enclave) so you can verify it is doing what it is supposed to do and not anything else!

Shameless antiplug: It's owned by the guy who destroyed freenode and the other guy who stole $2.4 trillion in bitcoins a decade ago. I'm serious.

no you can't... you can verify what something is doing, but there's no guarantee it's the same code routing your VPN requests, or that nothing else on the network/server is listening/forwarding your traffic elsewhere.

You can since the enclave attests to what is running!

This is also coupled with the crypto and NAT occuring in-enclave with various timing/obfuscations. It's verifiably private.
