Any VPN has to have some sort of a hub. Even ZeroTier. At least with OpenVPN
it's open source, and we could customize it to how we see fit and we need
not announce which port or which protocol type we decide to use.

The root nodes in this case would be hubs. There needs to be a central point
within each network to host and serve the proper security certs. Even with
OpenVPN, a point/node would still be able to see another point/node within the
private IP network. That would be the purpose of designing it with a wide
enough subnet so everyone could fit in.

With full control over our own VPN and DNS, it'd be a no brainer not to
at the minimum do a full investigation of such a setup.
