Description
Psiphon
Psiphon is an open source tool designed to circumvent censorship suffered by millions of Internet users in several countries where freedom of expression is a right that they do not have.
With Psiphon turn your computer into a proxy server that will connect the user or users you want to give access.
Among the Psiphon server and the client a secure, encrypted connection is established which can not be intercepted.
So if you have a friends or acquaintances who can not see a particular page because it has been banned in their country or because the connection fails, send them the address of the Psiphon server.
Psiphon lets you establish different user account, and all of them are protected with passwords which you may give to whomever you want.
How do I run Psiphon 3?
Download the client program and run it. When you run it, you should see a security prompt showing that this program is a legitimate product of Psiphon Inc.
Psiphon 3 automatically starts connecting when you run it. While it is connecting, a spinning icon is displayed.
When the green icon is displayed, all of your Internet traffic is flowing through Psiphon 3.
When you close the program, Psiphon 3 automatically disconnects. You can also click on the icon to toggle the connection.
Sometimes the VPN protocol is blocked and, after a 20 second connection timeout, Psiphon 3 automatically falls back to offering an HTTP Proxy and SOCKS Proxy over an SSH tunnel. In this mode, not all of your Internet traffic flows through Psiphon 3, just certain applications. Psiphon 3 automatically sets the Windows system proxy settings that are respected by default by all major web browsers.
