Re: 🚀 |ANN| MYSTERIUM NETWORK - Decentralized VPN built on blockchain |MYST|
it depends how this VPN ban is implemented...right now, the firewall is simply a blacklist of IP addresses
heres how things are now.
The Chinese gov would have to blacklist the IP of every out-of-country Mysterium node, to effectively ban the service, and IPs change constantly, depending on what nodes are where...depends how many users we get. i guess we'll see.

Yes, if the firewall will use only IP blocking, the Mysterium Network should be a solution. It will be impossible for the Chinese governement to block thousands of ever-changing IP addresses. They might however use deep packet inspection (see Wikipedia article here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_packet_inspection ) it can be more complicated even for a decentralized VPN to avoid being blocked. Let's see how the Mysterium devs will address this. In any case, decentralized VPN will always be way better, safer and probably also cheaper than centralized one.
