Comment on The Death of Traditional VPNs: How DPI Firewalls Use Machine Learning to Fingerprint Your Traffic
Bob2343@thelemmy.club 1 day agoI absolutely love Mullvad for their privacy policies and the random account number system! If you just want to hide your torrents from your ISP, they are definitely top tier.
The problem is that their standard WireGuard endpoints are instantly blocked by modern DPI firewalls (try using Mullvad on a strict corporate network, or in heavily censored countries). They do offer Shadowsocks bridges for obfuscation, but it adds significant latency and is still vulnerable to active probing compared to VLESS/Reality’s TLS mimicry.
Mullvad is for ultimate anonymity. Reality is for ultimate censorship evasion. Different tools for different threat models! :)
