Servers can be run by anyone, it's basically a docker container and you can run it on your residental PC or somewhere in the cloud.

You can also set the price yourself and via Cosmos IBC you can be paid in any cryptocurrency, not just sent. 20% of all payments sent to you - in any cryptocurrency - will be redistributed to stakers accoring to their stake, to give the token value.

The software is open source and from sentinel, there is no logging in the software. So if you run the vpn server software on your server, you will not be able to know what your server is used for.

In a further release there will be a relay network function to make tor like onion routing possible for even more safety.

Here are the instruction on how to run a vpn server: https://github.com/sentinel-official/sentinel/blob/master/vpn-node-docker/README.md

There are currently two apps on the appstore for the sentinel VPN:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.sentinel.sentinellite&hl=en&gl=US
with more than 50k downloads, 3k reviews and an average score of 4.6

as well as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=vpn.proxy.velocity&hl=en&gl=US
with more than 10k downloads, more than 2k reviews and an average score of 4.6

Now, the velocity app does not have any sentinel branding and is not run by the sentinel team. It is built by a third party company on top of the sentinel dvpn network. So this whitelabel sentinel vpn can charge fiat payments from its users, but it has to pay the node runners in cryptocurrency. A certain percentage of these crypto payments will then get redistributed among all holders of sentinel. This idea of whitelabel vpns will enable much more usability for the end users, as they do not have to worry about cryptocurrencies at all. This will enable explosive growth of the sentinel ecosystem!
