Thanks for the note. Good to know that it is more like a proxy which simulates SSL: makes it similar to stunnel. I will likely have to run a VPN protocol underneath with this on top.

Funny, I heard obfsproxy is used to circumvent the Chinese firewall too. I’ll have to take a look, thanks

I heard obfsproxy

Yeah, tor obs4 bridges.

But somehow, my high school managed to block those. My high school was literally more locked down than the great firewall of China.

I set up: github.com/cognetwork-dev/Metallic

At first, then I eventually switched to github.com/v2ray/v2ray-core as metallic struggled on some things. Both v2ray and xray are built for the great firewall of China, and iirc, they use the same tech.

  Thank you for the links. I’m amazed at what your school has achieved.
  
  I will try out v2core and xray - I’ll need to search if they have any whitepapers/documentation explaining exactly how these protocols work (at a high-level).
  
  Thanks again.

Yeah, no problem.

I did try wrapping Wireguard inside of xray, but didn’t manage to make it work. Not sure if it’s impossible, but yeah.

xray clients can work as a system-wide VPN if you’re worried about usability. Just no communication between different machines connected to the same server (probably).
