      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.
