Hello! I have a free account at hide.me and would like to try to use it with my docker compose containers. The free plan does not give me the keys for openVPN of Wireguard configuration, but only through the official client. I’d like then to create a docker container that runs the official hide.me client inside, and exposes it to other docker containers (like gluetun does, for instance). I’d also like to implement a killswitch or something like that to prevent ip leakage. Is this something easy-medium hard or something very complex? I already have a script that installs and runs the client to enable vpn that should be run at startup, but I miss the “expose the network interface” and the “do not expose it if not connected” (this last part I think is pretty easy with a basic firewall configuration)

any tips/something already done?
thanks in advance!

EDIT: probably crazy idea, but would it be possible to do this in gluetun?

    I used to use proton vpn but I recently learned that torrenting is not allowed on the free tier, so I had to look for alternatives, and none of them offers a free tier with openvpn or wireguard keys that allows torrenting :(

      Ah, well I just learned about the existence of free vpn services. I’m going to use it to set up a free guest wifi, so the neighbors, guests (and I) can do whatever with it. But I also struggle with the setup. It’s complicated to get the wireguard interface set up, the guest wifi isolated and set up the split routing and everything so the different wifis on the router forward the traffic over different services.
