What is the local proxy port for Psiphon?

Is it 5555?

I am trying to get around a company's firewall with VPN but cant be arsed trying to change the Psiphon config.

If I had my way (not that I would know what you have your way about), I'd turn my Psiphon client into a SOCKS5 proxy. That way, you're able to just hit psiphon.com in your browser and connect through that proxy even if they don't let Psiphon on their servers.

If I had my way (not that I would know what you have your way about), I'd turn my Psiphon client into a SOCKS5 proxy. Hi paul. There is a setting for this in your options under "Local Proxy server". Select a specific port such as 8889 then the Proxy will be made for that port. This is for the server proxy connection, so changing this will only make the proxy function for that client. In many cases it will only work if the site you are trying to get on can be reached via a proxy on that port.

It should appear as an option after downloading Psiphon. If your employer has blocked the psiphon.com address, then try accessing it via another host eg www.kittycow.

The other problem you have is the Psiphon.com server is running on an http port.

If you were able to reach the site via an http or https proxy, then you may need to do more research on that to get around the company's firewall/DNS. For instance, try to get it to work using Tor Browser. Then you will have to find the Psiphon servers IPs, which I don't think they would be that accessible. So perhaps get them via an http proxy to work. Thanks for the suggestion, the psiphon.

Is Psiphon a VPN or proxy?

Many online businesses prefer to use VPNs to cloak their traffic from the prying eyes of their rivals.

Psiphon may offer these features, but the company has a very different approach in mind when it comes to using technology for social good.

Psiphon is a software and web app that can turn any smartphone into a proxy device, which enables users to access uncensored websites such as Facebook and Twitter without sacrificing privacy or running afoul of terms of use agreements. Psiphon claims that its system has no server infrastructure. Instead, the company relies on user-generated IP addresses, which are assigned to the most popular proxy servers around the world.

How does Psiphon work? Psiphon users connect to the Psiphon web app by entering a URL that Psiphon provides. The site's backend connects to a random proxy server, which then sends the traffic back to the user's smartphone. When a Psiphon-connected smartphone attempts to connect to an unprotected website, the proxy server directs the request to the destination website. In essence, Psiphon works as a middleman between a user's browser and the destination website.

The service is available for both Android and iOS. Psiphon's software works in tandem with the mobile browser. The apps for the respective operating systems provide the same functionality.

While Psiphon doesn't host any of the proxy servers, the company does help users find them and it acts as a content filter for any blocked or censored material. This means that users don't need to be connected to the internet at all times to use Psiphon. In fact, they can use the app offline.

Psiphon also has an enterprise service, but it is not yet available. Is Psiphon a VPN or a proxy? When you use Psiphon, your traffic passes through a proxy server. But is it a VPN? Psiphon is not a VPN. It's not a firewall either.

A VPN encrypts your Internet traffic and encrypts your connection between you and the remote VPN server. Psiphon doesn't do either of those things. It doesn't encrypt your data and it doesn't force your computer's traffic through a third-party server.
