I am toying with the idea of using one of my Tailscale instances as traditional VPN, using the exit node features. I think I have that part down to a note as far as what has to be done in order for this to happen.
My question is if there are any security risks or security provisions that need to be made to keep the envelope secure. I am the only user of my Tailscale network, so I don’t have to worry about another user jacking things up. However, I am concerned about the implications of the visibility of the exit node I would be connecting to.
It’s pretty much a complete feature. There’s nothing really else to consider. The only consideration is that this exit node will now have the traffic of all of your other devices. The only privacy consideration is the ISP of the exit node will have all of the traffic from all of your devices. Other than that, it’s basically it.
