How does shifting from centralized VPNs to decentralized P2P routing (residential nodes) impact the threat model for SOHO networks? I've been thinking about the security shift from traditional centralized VPNs to decentralized P2P mesh protocols. In this model, traffic is routed through a distributed network of residential nodes instead of a company’s data center. This seems to solve the issue of having to trust a single provider with all your logs. But I'm curious about the new risks this creates for a home or small office setup. If my traffic exits through a random peer's residential connection, I wonder what's stopping that peer from trying to sniff the traffic or run a man-in-the-middle attack. I’m also interested in whether these randomized paths actually provide better protection against traffic analysis in a real-world scenario. Does joining such a network as a node significantly increase the attack surface of my own local network?…
