Topic: deep packet inspection
Deep packet inspection (DPI) is a surveillance technique used by governments and ISPs to monitor and control internet traffic. This invasive method allows for the blocking of websites, throttling of connections, and the collection of user data, posing significant threats to privacy and free expression. As governments employ DPI to enforce censorship and restrict access to information, the need for robust privacy tools and resistance against such tactics becomes increasingly critical.
