Raspberry Pi-Hole VPN Setup

I wrote the first edition of this as a guide for myself at the end of 2017 - it was a mashup of Pi-Hole + PiVPN scripts and an IPsec script installed within a separate Raspian Docker image... and it actually worked!

But things have come a long way, and WireGuard happened - I've since streamlined and simplified my setup into a single Docker Compose script.

The steps below assume the following:

1. Install osxfuse:

brew cask install osxfuse

2. Reboot your Mac.

3. Install ntfs-3g:

// Creates a new promise that automatically resolves after some timeout:
Promise.delay = function (time) {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        setTimeout(resolve, time)
    })
}

// Throttle this promise to resolve no faster than the specified time:
Promise.prototype.takeAtLeast = function (time) {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {

Deprecated in favor of Valet Wiki Page

I set up the wiki page for the valet-wsl project and moved the install guide there. This way it can have user contributions. Please have all disscussions or issues under the valet-wsl project so I can be aware of it. Please go to Valet Wsl Installation Guide

  const link = document.createElement('a');

  document.body.appendChild(link);

2023 update

ℹ️ Please note this research is from 2016 when Opera has first added their browser "VPN", even before the "Chinese deal" was closed. They have since introduced some real VPN apps but this below is not about them.

🕵️ Some folks also like to use this article to show a proof that the Opera browser is a spyware or that Opera sells all your data to 3rd parties or something like that. This article here doesn't say anything like that.

---

When setting up (that's immediately when user enables it in settings) Opera VPN sends few API requests to https://api.surfeasy.com to obtain credentials and proxy IPs, see below, also see The Oprah Proxy.

The browser then talks to a proxy de0.opera-proxy.net (when VPN location is set to Germany), it's IP address can only be resolved from within Opera when VPN is on, it's 185.108.219.42 (or similar, see below). It's an HTTP/S proxy which requires auth.
