FWIW: A colleague in Iran was able to connect to a server in the US using HTTPS on a non-standard port (9999). It appears that the Iranian government is not blocking TLS/HTTPS per se, but just port 443. So in principle, if there were just some HTTPS proxies using non-standard ports, then people would be able to get out. At least until (1) the addresses of the proxies become known to the regime, or (2) they start blocking cross-border TLS altogether.
Or applications (and providers) knew how to use SRV records... AlanC -- alan () clegg com | 1.919.355.8851
