Sounds like a shit VPN to me. I can select a region (US East) or individual states with PIA and basically the same with Surfshark.
I can select one of 100 servers . I could check geoip. Or write a shell script to do that. Anyway...
It's also free.
It's also one of the best.
Proton.
I use the app. I could do all the wireguard fancy stuff, but I won't.
At least the desktop app of proton shows you the state or even city where the server is located. For Germany I can even choose between Frankfurt and Berlin for example. I know that for us servers I was able to specifically choose New York.
Edit: In the android app you can go to countries then tap the three dots next to united states and select a state to connect to.
The Linux app doesn't have that. Just server numbers (at least on the free tier)
