If the VPN IP and the last ~4 hops in the traceroute just ignored ICMP pings, or just all inbound traffic, it sounds like that'd make your detection harder?

I've found that this isn't even that uncommon. One of the example VPN IP's on the article had the last 3 hops in traceroute ignoring ICMP. (though TCP traceroute worked). The VPN IP itself didn't, but it easily could!

(feel free to ignore lest we not give bad actors ideas)
