guerrilla — Your Personal Censorship Circumvention Toolbox

The post banner is licensed under CC BY 4.0.

This post will be unlike all of my previous posts. Not a guide, but rather a small unstructured announcement.

For those who are oppressed by inhumane regimes, for those who seek truth.

As state censorship continues to strike across Asia with greater power, we, regular citizens who can't stand digital isolation, seek opportunities to get access to restricted online resources.

Recently, all of this crap started to hit me more and more.

That's why I decided to set up a set of proxies, and start gathering censorship circumvention techniques pioneered by folks at China, as well as some other things in a single project for myself and my friends, but it may be useful for anyone.


So, introducing guerrilla

This repository provides a Docker Compose project for running different kinds of proxies and other censorship circumvention tools on your own servers More services and documentation will be added later.

The announcement can be found here.

Roadmap

This project is in its early stages of development. The roadmap will be updated as new needs arise.

  • ✓ (service) shadowsocks server

  • ❏ (service) DNS resolver and/or proxy with support for DoH

  • ❏ (service) mask as a regular site

  • ✓ (tool) shadowsocks qr generator

  • ✓ (tool) openssl base64 password generator

Usage

  1. Clone the project

    $ git clone https://github.com/de4thr0ll/guerrilla.git
    Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
    Note
    All further commands are performed in the cloned project root directory
  2. Build and…

It's a small Docker Compose project, a collection of easy-to-deploy censorship circumvention tools for digital guerrillas, as I call it for fun.

The goal is to have a simple interface for deploying and configuring such tools.

Right now, it contains only a shadowsocks-rust image and a Fedora image with misc tools like shadowsocks config QR code generator. More circumvention methods, misc tools, and documentation will be added in future, hopefully.

Yes, shadowsocks is not perfect, but it works for now.


I think, from now on, there will be more privacy-related posts on my profile.

🤘Stay safe.
