It's more about the latency since it's right over the border (<30ms). It's also a full 10Gbps so I can let family/friends use it and don't have to worry if a few of them are pulling the full 1Gbps from home connection. Doubt I'm gonna be able to match both of those with a Chinese VPS :/

Honestly looking at Mexican datacenters right now. Some are basically the same distance, just in the opposite direction lol

    Mexico actually sounds kinda brilliant, but who seems important. OVH has servers in Mexico, but I can imagine some hosters would get the Feds on the line and go "sure, here's his data".

    That's true, ICE & Co. are also all over Mexico right now because of the cartels. The whole border lock down and immigrant round-up thing is only half of their current force. And one of the big things they've been doing down there is monitoring/tapping their communication networks.

    So yeah, never mind, probably not a good idea. If it was just for torrenting or something it's probably fine, but beyond that I wouldn't push it.
