      It’s blocked, you need to set up hysteria or vless/reality to avoid VPN blocks which means you need to run the client

          They just block the VPN protocol, you need to pretend to be a website

              I don’t know if those work, and whether they continue to work against a state adversary. When you find a new workaround, there are ways to detect it

              Reality is actually fairly hard to block because the VPN sends a hello to the camouflage website. It uses the connection to the camouflage website to pretend it’s sending data from it, when it’s actually sending data from the real destination.
