Can someone tell me how they would know if someone uses a VPN to access their site? I believe OpenVPN has a way to make traffic look like normal HTTPS traffic
It's not about anti-censorship (making your VPN traffic look like regular traffic) it's about the IP address at the end of the VPN connection. They have a list of known VPN provider IP ranges and block those. If you run a proxy server or VPN on a your own private VPS for example, then it won't be detected.
Ah, that's great to know. Thanks
