Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and how to avoid it (sh.itjust.works)

Since Russia started to use DPI to block YouTube and other stuff, there arised a couple of solutions to fuck with it. I've come around this repository or, even better, the end of it's page for many cross-platform tools that may let you avoid DPI, and I've used some of them to prove they are working.

They don't work for resources that are explicitely banned, it only undoes this one layer of blocking. As Russia didn't block YT (like Twitter) that's enough for that one usecase. It's no private VPN or something, but it may become useful in the future.

It'd probably make it harder to deny some packets on ISP's side if they block specifilc thiings like torrents. To mask this traffic under the one sent to Facebook, I guess it should be a bit more specialized.
