Not sure how hard it would be to install WireGuard fully unattended, I tried it with OpenVPN months ago and still haven’t completed it.

Once you get your script to work, you’d have to wait minutes for the VPN to spin up in a new region.

WireGuard is much easier to get configured than OpenVPN.

Check out algo: https://github.com/trailofbits/algo

I think you could bake your configuration into a custom image, so it would be fast to get a VM started (about 30 secs on GCE, not sure about EC2).

If you use stopped instances, it's even faster.

(I work at GCP so know more about GCE than EC2)
