    What’s the reasoning for this? Surely it’s not that difficult to block all traffic pointing to “vpn.protonvpn.com” (simplified url for the sake of argument)

    Even if a VPN provider had 100 URLs to tunnel traffic through, they would all be found in a matter of time, no?

      I’m just a user, but afaik if the server you’re routing through is outside of China, they have no right to block the traffic.

      I think it’s some international agreement that no country is allowed to block external traffic because that interferes in other countries’ affairs something something, but I don’t know the specifics.
