While there are some interesting vulnerabilities in every VPN setup, it
might be useful to consider these questions as well:

   - Consider the location where it will be used
   - Is a VPN enough?
   - Would Tor with private bridges be a better option?
   - What happens if your VPN or private bridge gets blocked while in the
   field?

No matter what, you will need a backup plan in case the VPN goes down or
becomes blocked.

best,
Griffin
