Recently came back from there for a week. Thought that place was pretty chill, surprisingly so when compared to the rest of China.
I am just wondering if anyone tried DNing there and what you thought about the place?
Note: no political reasons whatsoever please, I hate politics with a passion. I want pure life/work related response please. Thank you.
Wow great response. Thanks. And plus, I heard that the authorities or government do know when you use VPN. Obviously they probably can’t eavesdrop on the actual data going across, but that their technology does allow knowing if somebody is using VPN.
Usually if they can reliably tell its a VPN, they’ll perform deep packet inspection which massively increases latency, or they’ll throttle your internet connection entirely and you’ll be at some tiny bandwidth until half an hour after you turn the VPN off.
Most VPNs attempt to disguise themselves as random 443 traffic these days and use custom or encrypted hand-shaking to prevent that being recognised.
Stuff like OpenVPN doesn’t have a hope in China because it can be identified and then attacked/throttled.
