This repository is a Windows toolkit that helps restore access to Discord and YouTube in regions where internet providers block or throttle them. It works by manipulating network traffic in ways that make it harder for a provider's deep packet inspection systems to recognize and block the connection, without needing a traditional VPN. The underlying technique relies on a tool called WinDivert, which intercepts and filters network traffic on Windows, similar to what iptables does on Linux. The README is written in Russian and is a fork of an existing project by another developer, adjusted for a newer release. It warns upfront about two things: fake pages impersonating the project on Telegram or YouTube that are not affiliated with the real maintainer, and antivirus software that may flag WinDivert as a risk tool, since interception tools like it can be used for both legitimate and harmful purposes. It explains that the WinDivert driver itself is digitally signed and that all included binaries come from the original upstream project, with checksums provided so users can verify them. To use it, a person first enables Secure DNS in their browser or operating system, then downloads the release archive, unblocks it in its file properties, and extracts it to a folder path without special characters. From there, batch scripts let a user either run a bypass strategy manually to test whether it works, or install it as a background Windows service that starts automatically. Additional service options include filtering by game traffic, updating a list of affected IP addresses, updating the system hosts file to fix Telegram's web version and Discord voice chat connections, running diagnostic checks, and running built in tests against a list of target sites. The project includes multiple different bypass strategies because no single method works reliably over time, as providers adjust their blocking methods. If one strategy stops working, the documentation suggests trying an alternate one or creating a custom strategy based on the included examples. This tool is aimed at everyday Windows users in regions with internet restrictions who want a guided, semi technical way to regain access to blocked services, and assumes basic comfort running downloaded scripts and following Russian language instructions.
