Tor's new WebTunnel bridges mimic HTTPS traffic to evade censorship
The Tor Project has added a "WebTunnel" capability that makes Tor traffic look indistinguishable (or almost indistinguishable) from regular HTTPS web traffic.
"It works by wrapping the payload connection into a WebSocket-like HTTPS connection, appearing to network observers as an ordinary HTTPS (WebSocket) connection. So, for an onlooker without the knowledge of the hidden path, it just looks like a regular HTTP connection to a webpage server giving the impression that the user is simply browsing the web."
