In order to “help” citizens of many countries bypass a series of restrictions and get in touch with Western media, the US government has provided a lot of funding to many technology companies that provide VPN services through USAGM, including three companies that establish virtual private networks – Psiphon, Lantern, and nthLink. Meanwhile, USAGM is supporting the development of a range of tools to bypass censorships, including VPNs.

nthLink is a modern, powerful, anti-censorship VPN tool mainly built on the currently still effective Google Jigsaw‘s Outline and Shadowsocks technologies, made for Windows and mobile platforms. It is capable of circumventing Internet censorship and self-recovering from blocking events, and allows you to browse the Internet freely without website or content blocking restrictions.

nthLink comes with great simplicity, strong privacy & security, and reliable stability. It uses a mix of encryption and obfuscation technologies, supports automatic network discovery and blocking recovery, does not require additional setup or registration (user can connect his entire device to nthLink VPN/Shadowsocks network with one click), does not store sensitive or personal information on user devices or transmit user information to nthLink servers, utilizes the strongest industrially available encryptions to keep user communication private and prevent network eavesdropping, and more.

It is worth mentioning that, unlike many VPN tools, if some or all server addresses are blocked, nthLink’s blocking recovery algorithm recalculates new access point addresses in real time based on the user’s location, device, time, and other information. No pre-allocated server addresses are stored on the client side, thus allowing users to reconnect to the nthLink network even if the users have not used nthLink for an extended period.

In short, nthLink is a powerful tool for safer access to the unfettered Internet with features like traffic masking, strong encryption, trusted DNS lookup, and automated IP switching. It can help you circumvent many Internet blocking and monitoring technologies used by many governments and websites.
