## What it is
MasterDnsVPN is a DNS tunneling VPN tool written in Go for bypassing internet censorship, optimized beyond DNSTT and SlipStream. It features low-overhead ARQ, resolver load balancing, and stability under high packet loss.

## Use cases
- bypass internet censorship with dns tunneling
- tunnel vpn traffic through dns when udp/tcp is blocked
- get a stable connection on lossy networks
- load balance across multiple dns resolvers
- circumvent firewalls that only allow dns traffic
- set up a dns tunnel vpn server and client

## When to choose
- you need censorship bypass where only DNS traffic is allowed
- you want better performance and packet-loss resilience than DNSTT or SlipStream
- you want an actively maintained, MIT-licensed DNS tunneling VPN

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose VPN with full encryption guarantees rather than DNS tunneling
- your network allows normal VPN protocols, since native VPNs are faster
- you need a GUI-only solution, as this is a technical tool
