What are shadowsocks and how do they work?
Shadowsocks, also known as SS, are like tech ninjas that let you bypass and go around the internet censorship.It was created by a clever programmer named “clowwindy,” SS to help people enjoy the Internet freely. It’s not a proxy on its own, but let me say that it’s the gateway to a proxy party.
