Escape

Keywords: Security - Web - Privacy - TLS (Transport Layer Security)

Escape is a Firefox web browser add-on that offers the ability to bypass HTTPS firewalls that filter websites based on the SNI value of the TLS connection. In addition, it can be used to bypass legacy filtering of DNS requests. The extension is implemented in JavaScript and is based on another security add-on named Convergence.
