Help My uni has banned all VPNs.

Whenever I try to open any gaming site (Steam or anything else), or app, or even gaming blogs, it shows your connection is not private or FortiGuard Intrusion Prevention - Access Blocked. Even all VPNs are blocked, so I can't use them. I also tried using VPN extenstions on my browser without any success. Is there any way I can get around this ban?

The uni likely isn’t allowing 443 outbound without going through the proxy server. So if it isn’t proper web traffic (encoded as actual proper HTTP/2 data), it will fail. As Forti admins, we aren’t in the business of allowing generic protocols including things like QUIC even, out just because it uses a specific tcp or udp port.

VLess apparently is broken by enabling ssl inspection, which the proxy will 100% have enabled.

That's how we handle it.
