youtubeUnblock: Bypasses YouTube SNI-based detection systems
Linux tool that bypasses YouTube access restrictions by manipulating SNI in network traffic.
Learn more about youtubeUnblock
youtubeUnblock is a Linux-based network traffic manipulation tool designed to bypass YouTube detection systems that rely on Server Name Indication (SNI). The tool operates through two implementation approaches: a userspace application that works with nfnetlink queue and netfilter rules, or as a kernel module that integrates directly into the netfilter stack. It supports various Linux environments including OpenWRT routers, Entware-based systems, and standard Linux distributions. The tool is specifically designed for YouTube traffic and includes configuration options for both iptables and nftables firewall systems.
Dual Implementation
Offers both userspace application and kernel module versions. The userspace version uses nfnetlink queue while the kernel module integrates directly into netfilter for reduced overhead.
Router Compatibility
Native support for OpenWRT routers with pre-built packages and firewall rules. Includes UCI and LuCI configuration interfaces for router management.
SNI Manipulation
Specifically targets Server Name Indication in TLS handshakes to bypass detection systems. Focuses on YouTube traffic patterns and connection characteristics.
