We are excited to add QUIC obfuscation for WireGuard, aimed at helping users bypass firewalls and censorship. This new obfuscation method is now available on all desktop platforms.

If I run WireGuard at home as a personal VPN does it provide the same sort of QUIC obfuscation? Or is there something that I can implement similar?
Mullvad does it somehow, so it is definitely possible. No idea if Wireguard supports it or if they run something on top of wireguard.
“The Android & iOS apps will include QUIC obfuscation in future releases.”
The way things are going, obfuscating the simple fact you are using a VPN is becoming increasingly important.
Hm. Mullvad is looking better. Will look up these guys more.
This is great, I might try it again then. I want out of Proton.
I keep hearing Proton is supportive of Trump and will easily turn you over.

Thank you. Now I’ve seen the actual tweet. There’s always a tweet with these MAGA folk.
Yeah their CEO said some weird shit last year. They also just rolled out an LLM chat bot this year. Sketchy company heavily leaning into enshittification.
I switched to Proton at one point because they’re one of the last few providers to offer port forwarding, but I recently cancelled it and went back to Mullvad.
that’s an odd thing to hear
If I understand it correctly, it masks that its vpn traffic by appearing as QUIC traffic (udp under http)?
…yes, it says so in the article.
My confusion is more that that quote doesn’t confirm that they are trying to mimic QUIC traffic, only that they use udp with http.
The use of “tunneling” usually implies wrapping a protocol inside another, so it wouldn’t be mimicking QUIC, but rather be a genuine stream. I assume from the quote
