Gotta love dealing with things blocking Russia and Russia blocking things ​​

@iska
WireGuard over TLS channel still somehow works, but this is getting very annoying. I have to get out of here ASAP 😩

If Tor is too slow you might want to look into one of those censorship circumvention VPNs

@m0xee@social.librem.one show me how to do it ​​

@iska
Proton's application does this, the idea is very simple β€” just transmitting WG UDP packets over a TLS channel, you can do it yourself with something like this: https://github.com/lygstate/wireguard-proxy
I want to adopt it to my needs so I can run it right on my proxy to do the same as Proton's software does, but it looks like port numbers to connect to are no longer accessible via their web API β€” most likely to prevent entry points from getting blocked 🀣

@Hyolobrika
The only way to connect to TOR in Russia is over VPN πŸ˜‚
They've been blocking it at least since last summer, I have a machine that is on 24/7 and it never attains network connectivity.
And now it looks like they have figured out how to block OpenVPN and WireGuard traffic with DPI, the only reliable way right now is wrapping it in TLS traffic 😩

@m0xee@social.librem.one @Hyolobrika@social.fbxl.net I've recently used tor on my mobile device using a bridge, seems to work fine.

@m0xee@social.librem.one I know you only need to tunnel the handshake

@iska
Yep, looks like it. They have figured out a way to detect it and filter it out.
There is also a way to proxy WireGuard over TCP, which is very cheap and they aren't filtering it out β€”Β at least the entrypoints they don't block by address are still accessible this way. The utility I've linked above can do that too.

@iska
That might be ISP/cell carrier dependent, my ISP for one even allowed normal OpenVPN TCP connections last week, but was still blocking UDP ones, it looked like they have lifted individual IP-address blockslists for some reason, but this week everything is being blocked again. This is very annoying!
@Hyolobrika

@m0xee@social.librem.one @Hyolobrika@social.fbxl.net well I had it on both cellular and home network

This is exactly what obfuscation protocols are built for, and pluggable transports in general.

I recommend trying different pluggable transports, either with a VPN or with Tor, and seeing which ones work.

What kind of bridge did you use?
