I know that using VPN I "trust" the VPN owner, because he has all the data I send/receive. I was thinking about such setup: buy VPS (for example: linode; it would be good to buy one anonymously), setup my own VPN (openvpn) and then use some external (for example: mullvad) VPN provider. I'm not sure if it's right or more secure that regular VPN, without additional steps. Can someone comment?

I have a couple more questions: 1. how can I use Tor with VPN the most efficient/anonymous way? should I connect VPN -> Tor or Tor -> VPN? 2. Can you point me to good resources about privacy/anonimyty online and linux configuration for privacy?

Thanks for help.
