@top GoVPN
GoVPN is simple secure free software virtual private network daemon,
-aimed to be reviewable, secure, DPI-resistant, written on Go.
+aimed to be reviewable, secure and
+@url{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_packet_inspection, DPI}/censorship-resistant.
-It uses fast PAKE DH A-EKE for mutual strong zero-knowledge peers
-authentication. Data transport is encrypted, authenticated, hides
-message's length and timestamp. PFS property, resistance to dictionary
-attacks, replay attacks. Built-in heartbeating, rehandshaking, real-time
-statistics, IPv4/IPv6-compatibility. GNU/Linux and FreeBSD support.
