Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and how to avoid it (sh.itjust.works)

Since Russia started to use DPI to block YouTube and other stuff, there arised a couple of solutions to fuck with it. I've come around this repository or, even better, the end of it's page for many cross-platform tools that may let you avoid DPI, and I've used some of them to prove they are working.

They don't work for resources that are explicitely banned, it only undoes this one layer of blocking. As Russia didn't block YT (like Twitter) that's enough for that one usecase. It's no private VPN or something, but it may become useful in the future.

Depends. Many popular apps are banned and closely observed here and in Iran, so they'd at least try to block any kind of connection via them, whatever protocol they use, and I switched between several on these to no result. Less known solutions work, those gated behind a subscription too, and there you can still buy a server in EU to tunnel your web needs.

It also varies from carrier to carrier, so on one connection you can use something as simple as krlvm's tunnel local app, on others you'd need a real and non-banned VPN.

For those who have time to try several links, check thia chat on TG: outlinevpnofficial They don't work 100% of time, but having a lot of these public servers means some of them are yet to be blocked. Their app is dumb, but it's availiable for W10, Linux (appimage) and Android I believe.
