    Yeah the problem I have with those is that they are mostly run by Chinese, be it on- or offshore, and they can be compromised or extorted. And any service that accepts payment via alipay is sketchy in my books.

      It’s opensource, You can get a vps and run your own, very easy and the speed is enough to watch 4k youtube.

        I had a shadowsocks server on a vps, was dead after a few weeks. Hosted on AWS Hong Kong (before China took over). They blacklist IPs very quickly.

          SS on AWS is easy to be found and blocked, try Trojan, Hysteria v2, V2Ray…, I had one of V2Ray on GCP hong kong, and it lasted for a very long time.
          Usually GCP and Azure has the best connection to CN.

            Interesting, thanks! My astrill subscription is still running for a couple months, but will test it as a fallback.
