You require an email and payment in either on-chain or lightning Bitcoin. The end user has to ensure that their email isn't linked to their identity or IP (a tall order for most) AND they use a properly non-KYC Bitcoin UTXO to pay for the service. Even then you have root access to the server and all its traffic. A VPS will always offer a superior trust model as you can compile the software yourself on your computer, sign it, then deploy it on the VPS. What assurances do you have that you're not running malicious LND software? What assurances do you have that you're not logging LND activity and traffic? What assurances can you make that you're not under gag order by a state intelligence agency and can't disclose that you're giving them data?

Nice. You realised an idea I had in the past, but thought won’t work at scale. My idea was to directly sell BTCPay plug in and play physical servers.
