Actually it is easier. There is docker image for xray-reality, which just works.
TOR is not safe
I even watched a documentary about that case
Yes… as long as you can self-host a server somewhere (eg. a VPS) there are plenty of workarounds. Just depends on what level of government scrutiny you’re concerned about.
Pretty sure the NSA could detect and block whatever we come up with, but I don’t think that’s the big concern for most of us.
you only collect and store the interesting streams
Very similar to what I was getting at.
I’m in Russia, x-ray becomes the only thing our government don’t know how to distinguish from other protocols. Figures, it completely mimics as real popular website, it is practically impossible to detect if configured correctly.

Nodes in control or under surveillance of goverment agencies is a well known problem for a long time and it’s not a secret. Yeah I read the article about that topic on the Tor project website and the best thing they could say is that the user just used some old piece of software. Could be the issue, but may not.
I hate it so bad when they dumb down years of thoughts by talented (and passionated) researched, makes me want to break my keyboard.
Agreed. For practical personal and commercial use it’s going to get the job done.
I would not underestimate that the US NSA has probably figured out a way to fingerprint it at the very least, but they’re probably not going to make it obvious by doing something as mundane as blocking, they’re just going to silently crack it and use it for data gathering.
