My clients are a rpi 4 and an older ipad. Sometimes use an Android phone as well.Works really well.

> Google acts as a meet-me point and also provides the authentication mechanisms including MFA.

On one hand, it made me chuckle a bit. On the other hand, it could be reasonable in many scenarios.

I run my server on a connection that's a cgnat and nat by home router. So, no option for me other than chrome remote desktop. It also does p2p.

If you create an outbound tunnel, your options are whatever you want. nat and cgnat only affect inbound routing.

check into tailscale or cloudflare tunnels/argo

This is what came to my mind: Move out of India. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1088538

It doesn't seem to work for me. I am on a network where all web proxies are blocked. I tried accessing anonymouse.org and I got the default page which is used to inform blocked domains on my network. I can ping to the ip of anonymouse.org. I tested whether I have setup dnscrypt correctly with: "sudo tcpdump udp port dns" it showed very long unreadable lines which I have not seen before using dnscrypt. For anonymouse.org this was the tcp dump output:

12:57:43.523694 IP mypc-ubuntu.local.38481 > resolver2.opendns.com.domain: 28982 updateM [b2&3=0x666e] [27192a] [30295q] [20660n] [52086au][|domain]

12:57:43.801981 IP resolver2.opendns.com.domain > mypc-ubuntu.local.38481: 29238 updateM [b2&3=0x666e] [27192a] [30295q] [414n] [12287au] Type65535 (Class 13704)? [|domain]

There should have been a third line with the encrypted lines, but it doean't show up for anonymouse.org. Where as the third line with encrypted payload gets shown to the domains that are whitelisted in my network.

I'm from one of the poorest countries. I could buy my first smart-phone because of the availability of cheaper Android phones. I'm bit of geek because of the openness of Android, at least I'm aware of what software runs inside my phone. I expressed my true sentiments and my post was down voted. What a irony!

I didn't downvote you, but I might imagine it's because your post didn't contribute to the conversation.

I'm also from a poor country, and an Android phone was my first true smarthphone (this Christmas :) ).

Can't we get updated definitions for peerblock which will blacklist their crawling ip?
