From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You can rent a server and run OpenVPN on that server on port 443. Maybe even with port sharing so that the server can act like a regular webserver too.
It's easier to trace the traffic back to you if the server runs in your name but it's pretty hard to tell that you are using VPN if you aren't connecting to a known VPN provider.
