On: Poor man's VPN (pay for only what you need)

[ignoramous]

You don't need VPNs to bypass censorship blocks in India. Well, at least in my experience.

Apps that manipulate TCP packets locally to break fingerprinting [0] like GoodbyeDPI (Windows) [1], GreenTunnel (cross platform CLI) [2], Intra (Android) [3] have been adequate.

Neat! I’ll keep that in mind next time I travel. Tho I’d still use a self-hosted VPN to hide the destination IP when I don’t mind the latency.
