A proxy tool to bypass GFW.
XX-Net: a long running proxy project with a focus on blending in
XX-Net is a proxy tool whose README says it has run continuously for nine years. The stated approach is to make traffic look ordinary rather than fight the infrastructure that blocks it.
The stated approach
The README describes a stable system that has been running continuously for nine years. Its strategy is deliberately not to probe for weaknesses in the blocking infrastructure, on the theory that those get patched over time, but to make its traffic look like ordinary traffic that cannot be told apart, hiding in the general flow of network connections. Python is the primary language.
Platforms and mechanics
Support is listed for Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, and Linux. A custom obfuscation algorithm is meant to keep traffic from being identified, and the tool simulates Chrome browser behavior to look ordinary. It is described as open source software that needs no installation and can connect multiple devices at once.
What else comes along
The feature list includes a built in ChatGPT, with each plan granting a large token allowance. The version log notes upgrades like moving the GAE server to Python 3, improving iOS connection performance, adding a new channel for X-Tunnel, and a code refactor to cut resource usage. Older 4.x builds need a fresh download because in app upgrades are not supported for that change.
Reading the README as history
The announcements read more like a maintenance log than a roadmap: blacklist updates, performance fixes, and steady version bumps. Nine years of running releases is the kind of claim that is hard to verify from the repository alone, but the version history is consistent with a long lived project.
Editorial conclusion
The interesting part is the philosophy stated up front: look like everyone else instead of trying to outrun the block list. Whether that holds up is not something the README can prove, but the project's longevity is on record.
