How to implement an encrypting proxy under Linux?
I want to use Wi-Fi in public places such as Internet cafes, where it is unsecured, and the owner of the Internet cafe is also not endowed with trust and can listen or fake traffic.
I think to install a proxy at home under Linux, and in a cafe write my IP with browser settings. When connecting to this proxy, the browser must encrypt all traffic. How to raise this quickly under Linux? Also what about the certificates and the person in the middle?

The easiest way is to raise an SSH tunnel
Instead of 5555 any port, a SOCKS v5 proxy will appear on it (that is, localhost: 5555).
So from the computer to the proxy there will still be unencrypted traffic. It is necessary either to raise a local SOCKS proxy on the same computer from where to go to the Internet, or to build a VPN
