Try Tor Browser with WebTunnel Integration

General Discussion
#1

After months of planning and development Tor Browser with built in WebTunnel pluggable transport based on HTTPT.

How to use it?

First, download specialized build of Tor Browser from here. Or alternatively build it from source.

You can enable WebTunnel with a custom bridge line. Here is one of it:

Bridge webtunnel 192.0.2.3:1 url=https://n97jlbvjwy3iotetc0axrtu3mm7gq1gajqv7-80-78-24-44.sslip.io/939e42a2-8f3f-4645-9d7b-8b9be28b157e

Like all non-stable version build of the tor browser, it is recommended to use it with caution, as it is not fully tested for the best security and stability.

What is webtunnel’s advantage?

The communication with a webtunnel bridge is in HTTPS protocol, thus difficult to identify. Furthermore, the same network address can host a website in coexistence of the webtunnel bridge, making active probing less effective.

It seems that the webtunnel process was crashed on server side. I have fixed it by restarting it. I will try to find out the root cause for the crash of the process.
