Click on the OBFS4 icon and follow the prompts to activate.
The OBFS4-EZ can be used with the wallet and the Tor Browser.
NOTE:
Windows version is working and will be released next week in testnet version.
* only works for testnet
* Enabling/Disabling Obfs4 from Status Bar
Great work team!!
I would include a "What is OBFS4-EZ" tab in the status bar menu in order to help everyone understand what is about, why is important and what benefits it provide.
Perhaps in the help menu.
The easier to found the better. Most people don't know about privacy tech. Better said, we don't know about the tech behind the tools we daily use.
"The world of censorship is changing all the time.
It's a good idea to learn how to use bridges and pluggable transports before you actually need them."
"Just last week, ISPs in Belarus began blocking public Tor relaysbut bridges and pluggable transports are so far working to defeat the blocks.
We are tracking other censorship events, such as those in Saudi Arabia, Kazakhstan, and elsewhere.
If you know details of these or any other Tor blocks, please tell us."

OBFS4 (The obfourscator)
https://github.com/Yawning/obfs4/blob/master/doc/obfs4-spec.txt
This is a protocol obfuscation layer for TCP protocols.
Its purpose is to keep a third party from telling what protocol is in use based on message contents.
obfs4 offers protection against passive Deep Packet Inspection machines
that expect the obfs4 protocol. Such machines should not be able to verify
the existence of the obfs4 protocol without obtaining the server's Node ID
and identity public key.
obfs4 offers protection against active attackers attempting to probe for
obfs4 servers. Such machines should not be able to verify the existence
of an obfs4 server without obtaining the server's Node ID and identity
public key.
obfs4 offers protection against active attackers that have obtained the
server's Node ID and identity public key. Such machines should not be
able to impersonate the server without obtaining the server's identity
private key.
obfs4 offers protection against some non-content protocol fingerprints,
specifically the packet size, and optionally packet timing.
obfs4 provides integrity and confidentiality of the underlying traffic,
and authentication of the server.
This info is interesting for the people who already know what is obfs4 and want to know more.
But I don't understand anything.
It needs a simpler explanation. Without words like:
bridges, non-content protocol fingerprints, packet size, packet timing, underlying traffic, server's Node ID, Deep Packet Inspection machines, TCP protocols
When windows version goes life, You should make an explanation of what it is and what it can be used for. In a language that everyone understands.
Something like, You are safe and protected by OBSF4 bridges that encrypt your connection!
Something like, You are safe and protected by OBSF4 bridges that encrypt your connection!
This is the way to go. With a little more explanation but this is the way to go.
OBSF4 bridges encrypts your connection to surf the net without any risk of being tracked and confidentially.
If your country is telling you what you can or you can't do on the internet, then is a MUST.
Countries on the black list: China, Saudi Arabia, Kazakhstan.
