Could you build this?

Partial A Windows GUI wrapping WireGuard or OpenVPN is vibe-codeable, but a real VPN product depends on a global server fleet, a privileged network driver, and kill-switch logic that a solo builder cannot provide.

What it would actually take: A real version needs a Windows client (often a C# or C++ service with a WinTun driver), a WireGuard or OpenVPN core, and a DNS-leak and kill-switch implementation at the OS level. The hard parts are a globally distributed server network with abuse handling and the security audits required to be trusted with users' traffic.
