Using a Tor browser is another way to get around censorship, but there might be occasions where you don't want to use a Tor browser or where Tor relays and bridges are blocked or where you want to run internet apps which aren't within a browser.
On Freedombone the VPN is wrapped within a TLS layer of encryption, making it difficult for any deep packet inspection systems to know whether you are using a VPN or not. Since there is lots of TLS traffic on the internet your connection looks like any other TLS connection to a server, and this may help to avoid being censored. It's probably not possible for your local ISP to block TLS traffic without immediately generating a lot of irate customers, and stopping any kind of commercial activity.
