Thank you, looks like it isn't possible to get the game rated by the government.
The page says that the only way would be selling or partnering with a Korean company and that foreigners can not apply and also we are required to pay a high fee.
Any example of anti-dpi tool?
The easiest way to bypass this (and what most illegal websites are doing) is getting a twitter account (since it's not blocked) and get a new domain every time the old one gets blocked and tweet it. When users see that page, users can go to your twitter page and get the new domain and connect to it!
I heard GoodbyeDPI works for SNI bypassing but dunno for HTTP blocks since I usually just use a VPN. It's known that setting your MTU to something like 200~400 should also work.
The main problem is our launcher is HTTP based with that block people can't open or update the game, So basically everyone will be forced to download the game all over again, but thanks for the suggestion I will certainly make a twitter account.
For that kind of userbase, I would recommend you partner up with a VPN provider with south korean server (some datacenters don't get blocked. Hint hint
)and sell at a discounted rate. That way you will make money and make south koreans internet browsing more private 
Change that launcher to HTTPS based next time
Haha, nice one, until they go for IP-based blocking!
I live in Singapore and while we haven't gone to such extremes. We do some minor filtering through ISPs providing domestic connection, but commercial providers are not affected. Is it the same in South Korea?
Since we using cloudflare they would block alot of websites together i guess?
They can't do IP based filtering because guess what if they block CloudFlare IPs
Didn't get the last part though. Can you explain a bit please?
For now they only block based on domain (SNI block) or domains & url (HTTP block)
It means that internet providers who serve residential or home customers can block through DNS, but if you directly plug into the internet through a data center there is no block.
In Korea, all residential connections are blocked and some datacenters are also blocked.
People appoint the politicians, politicians make the laws. This means the people are making the laws indirectly. Indirect democracy.
It doesnt mean the politicians are above the law.
As long you do a non encrypted request, obviously they are able to manipulate it.
I still wonder why my tax money is using to pay for politicians jet fuel.
I just did some Google-fu and found the entire backstory.
Anyway I think living in the internet age, a VPN account is a must-have to be activated when network security is in doubt (like free WiFi) or when visiting countries with censorship. Cat and mouse game.
At least we are not crazy enough to block our datacenters. fingers crossed
Whiskey Tango Foxtrott!
OK.
I mean it's not OK but OK.
That's actually not true. KISA (Korea Internet & Security Agency)'s RootCA was denied by Mozilla because they created fake certs for test.com and someother. Also Korean private owned company who reselled symantec's certs issued a cert for google.com which lead Chrome to untrust Symantec's ssl anymore. Who knows what now...
Read the Thread. Stop bullshitting me.
Did you really trust CA's? Really? Big suprise.
Wow. The South Korean government takes on the Internet. grabs popcorn
What I was saying is that even if you encrypt your request, no one knows...
That s because the majority of people voted politicians to make such laws that enable them to receive free fuel.
You can never blame the politicians. We vote and appoint them.
I don't remember voting for any politician.
EDIT2:
Neither do I remember appointing any one of them.
Apparently just AS9644 SK Telecom is doing the hijack managed to get it partially working with HSTS
Thank you!
If anyone has any other suggestion of how to improve the situation/bypass the hijack will be great!
Can you PM me the url? I have KT on my home and using SK for mobile.
P.S. AFAIK if one ISP blocks, it won't take long for others to block because the blocklist is managed by the government, not the ISP.
Ive searched and looks like getting a rating costs around 100USD. If your userbase is that big, and if you are making profit with it, you might want to get a rating on it?
Host your site on the .onion network.
I recommend the .potatoe network.
Superior potassiums.
South Korea (being one of the most technologically advanced nations in the world) still uses Internet Explorer?
