no hate to OOP, do not harrass them, but it was a bit weird to post literally made up data like it was truth lolol
other cool things:
Countries where VPNs are illegal or restricted.

I live in Russia and with all this “VPN is restricted” fuss I’ve yet to meet someone without VPN on their phone. Most people use free VPN services, some are paying for it, me and my friends use VPN we set up on VPS.
my understanding is that the restrictions are on the VPN providers themselves, not the individual user. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-41829726
They have black boxes on ISPs that listen to traffic and can restrict things, and they manually block popular VPNs’ IPs and protocols. Most free ones don’t work, but new, rare and paid ones still do.
Wireguard protocol works with my home internet provider, doesn’t work on LTE. Shadowsocks just works everywhere.
They do have black boxes but there are protocols they can’t handle yet. It’s just usual sword vs shield arms race.
Yes, there’s a lag between different networks and public wifis. Seems like some blocks are implemented by ISPs themselves however fast they are at this.
Hope they take this sword as a didlo while we shield our freedom of information and privacy.
I also live in Russia, and in my experience certain VPNs just get blocked by the ISP. Like, I just can’t connect to certain VPNs, the connection either gets stuck in an infinine loop or fails with an error. But some other VPNs still work without any problems.
Plus, since the beginning of this month, it’s prohibited to promote/advertise “means to avoid blocked internet resources”, i.e. proxies/VPNs/etc, so it can be called “partially restricted”
Same here, although they do seem to be actively trying to block proton vpn, it works on my home wifi but not on mobile data. Most paid vpns work well, PIA has no issues in my experience.
self-hosted Shadowsocks stays winning
