    I assume they’re doing both to make the censorship harder to circumvent. Even with an alternative DNS provider or a VPN that’s hosted in a country they have no authority over, the browser’s still gonna catch it.

    The harder you make it, the fewer people will attempt it and the higher the chance is that citizens will mess up.

        How can I read more about that website? Is it a snowflake node or something?

          It’s theoretical, it’s not a real website and 10.anything should be a local IP address.

          It just illustrates that you can access a website through a browser without using a domain name.
