About usage DNSCrypt for accessing epicnpc

[VeryMelon]

As you might know around 3 days ago my government was blocking many websites like Steam, EpicGames, Paypal, etc.
So I was thinking to ask this in case the block applies to EpicNPC too.
Or in case I forgot to turn off Simple DNSCrypt when accessing EpicNPC.

Is DNSCrypt safe to use for EpicNPC?
I know epicnpc is forbidding using a VPN, but how about DNSCrypt?
I don't know much about network things, but afaik, only VPN or DNSCrypt can bypass block from government.

I do not know, I thought rules on vpn have been adjusted lately, but I do not see a post or rule change.

But honestly you need to be ready in case they do block it. This seems stupid. From what i read they are trying to block "unlawful" stuff on the internet, but the law does not seem to state what is considered unlawful content.

Thats the thing with vague legal terms. They can be interpreted in a broad manner (most of the time intentionally) for positive or ,in this case, negative actions.

@VeryMelon hopefully, you will find the right solution. It would suck to be restricted of the internets freedom just because the government is bad.

Yea, currently I only know VPN and DNSCrypt to bypass it.
And so far DNSCrypt works pretty well, but still needs a confirmation from EpicNPC admin, is this allowed or not.

VPN usage no longer results in an instant ban, but we still block members from doing certain things if a VPN is detected.

I see, is DNSCrypt also treated the same as VPN? as DNSCrypt didn't change the IP just encrypting the DNS (cmiiw)

 

[EpicNPC]

Its treated the same way

Its treated the same way

I see, thank you for answers
