TIL mullvad uses shadowsocks: same tech that chinese users use to get around vpn blocking/DPI on the great firewall of china.

It enables this when it detects that a firewall is blocking wireguard. Damn thats cool. I am liking this company.

Can't China just block common VPN endpoints? Then it wouldn't matter whether or not traffic is obfuscated.

I’m not sure how they use it, i was just told by chinese users that they can’t use tor and use shadowsocks and one other thing that I forget

I suppose to use Tor they need a bridge. It might be hard for an average chinese to figure out how to find one.

Last I heard, the canonical way was to send an email to a tor project email address. Not ideal...

Maybe some kind of steganography

Interesting

I thought the same. Just dropped last month.
