Passable circumvention tool
Psiphon does not require registration, allowing you to immediately use it. It will automatically connect to the fastest server out of twenty regions. These include the United States, United Kingdom, Spain, Switzerland, Canada, and India. You can also select the region that you want to access. Once you’ve selected your area, your new IP address will be displayed on the screen.
There is also a catch when bypassing censorship. You will not be able to access the content you want if the region you chose is also banned from seeing this content. You will not be able to find out if it is blocked until you have tried entering the website, platform or application. In this instance, you can utilize Psiphon’s open-source code. This will include transporting modes, setting local proxy ports and splitting the VPN tunnel. If you simply need a way to get around internet restrictions, you can use Psiphon on Windows devices running Windows XP or older.
