Could you build this?

No This is a repackaged PIA VPN client. A real VPN needs kernel or network-extension drivers and a global fleet of audited servers.

What it would actually take: A real VPN client needs a tunnel implementation (WireGuard/OpenVPN) with OS-level virtual adapters and a kill switch, plus DNS leak protection across Windows, macOS, and Linux. The service also needs a globally distributed server network with no-logs infrastructure and independent audits, which takes networking and security teams and significant capital.
