China has been trying for a decade with zero success, best of luck
What's the reasoning for this? Surely it's not that difficult to block all traffic pointing to "vpn.protonvpn.com" (simplified url for the sake of argument)
Even if a VPN provider had 100 URLs to tunnel traffic through, they would all be found in a matter of time, no?
I'm just a user, but afaik if the server you're routing through is outside of China, they have no right to block the traffic.
I think it's some international agreement that no country is allowed to block external traffic because that interferes in other countries' affairs something something, but I don't know the specifics.
Lmao.
