What is happening with internet access โ and why do the usual workarounds no longer work?
๐ Roskomnadzor has once again adjusted its TSPU 'boxes', which has led to widespread VPN failures across Russia.
This time, even those protocols that were considered practically unkillable have fallen victim.
โ๏ธ Which protocols have been affected?
The RKN updated the DPI filtering rules and started throttling the last remaining live options:
VLESS โ the main savior of the last months
SOCKS5
L2TP
๐ Problems began back in late November โ especially affecting Tatarstan, Siberia, and remote regions.
VLESS, which successfully disguised itself as regular web traffic, was the last hope for stable bypassing.
๐ฎ โComrade Majorโ powered up the interception
Now traffic is analyzed based on indirect signs:
foreign IPs,
suspicious traffic spikes,
โnon-matchingโ behavior with a regular user.
๐งจ Summary: the connection just breaks, even if the protocol is not formally blocked.
๐ Free VPNs can be buried
Mass services are no longer pulling through.
Yes, bypassing blocks will still happen โ the technology wonโt disappear.
But now:
more expensive โ๏ธ
more difficult โ๏ธ
only for those willing to pay โ๏ธ
It seems that Russia has officially entered the phase of the internet โfor its own.โ
If such examinations are coming in โ subscribe, it will only get more interesting ๐ฅ
