## What it is
NoDPI is a Python utility that bypasses Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) censorship by running a local proxy server that fragments TLS ClientHello packets. It is a cross-platform desktop tool (with a separate Android version) aimed primarily at users in Russia to restore access to blocked sites like YouTube.

## Use cases
- bypass DPI blocking of websites
- access YouTube when blocked by ISP
- circumvent deep packet inspection censorship
- fragment TLS ClientHello to evade traffic filtering
- run a local proxy to unblock blocked services
- avoid VPN setup for simple censorship circumvention

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight, no-admin-rights DPI bypass tool on Windows, Linux, or macOS
- you want a simple Python-based alternative to GoodbyeDPI-style tools
- your ISP uses DPI to block sites like YouTube and you only need HTTP(S) unblocking
- you prefer an open-source tool that collects no data and uses only the standard library

## When to avoid
- you need full-tunnel VPN-level privacy or encryption of all traffic
- your censorship uses IP blocking or non-TLS filtering that fragmentation cannot evade
- you need a GUI-first experience on desktop (this is primarily a CLI utility)
- you need an Android solution (use the separate NoDPI4Android project)
