I was reading this guide on how to run a snowflake proxy, and I'm considering doing it.

I'm currently renting a small VPS for my self-hosted services, and I have some spare capacity. So I was wondering, are there any downsides that I might be overlooking?

My self-hosted services are on a URL with my real name. Could there be any privacy or legal implications for me? (I don't live under an authoritarian regime)
