### Network tunnels
- [obfsproxy](https://git.torproject.org/pluggable-transports/obfsproxy.git) Tor framework for implementing pluggable transports (anti-censorship network tunnels)
- [flashproxy](https://crypto.stanford.edu/flashproxy/) -  miniature proxy that runs in a web browser, and reflects traffic to a Tor relay.
- [meek](https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/meek) - Tor pluggable transport that uses HTTP for carrying bytes and TLS for obfuscation.
- [scramblesuit](http://www.cs.kau.se/philwint/scramblesuit/) - Tor pluggable transport that uses look-like-nothing traffic as a cover channel
- [FTE](https://fteproxy.org/) - fteproxy provides transport-layer protection to resist keyword filtering, censorship and discriminatory routing policies
- [shadowsocks](https://github.com/shadowsocks) - a fast socks5 proxy that encrypts traffic
- [streisand](https://github.com/jlund/streisand) - single command set for a server running a wide variety of anti-censorship software
- [obfs4](https://github.com/Yawning/obfs4) - the newest version of the Tor obfsproxy obfuscation proxy. implements multiple pluggable transports.
- [bit-smuggler](https://github.com/danoctavian/bit-smuggler) - tunnel traffic through a bittorrent connection.
- [govpn](https://github.com/stargrave/govpn) - virtual private network daemon, aimed to be reviewable, secure, DPI/censorship-resistant
- [Dust](https://github.com/blanu/Dust) - A Polymorphic Engine for Filtering-Resistant Transport Protocols
- [facebook-tunnel](https://github.com/matiasinsaurralde/facebook-tunnel) Tunneling Internet traffic over FB chat.

### Decentralized systems
- [ipfs](https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs) - Ipfs is a global, versioned, peer-to-peer filesystem.
- [ZeroNet](https://github.com/HelloZeroNet/ZeroNet) - Decentralized websites using Bitcoin crypto and the BitTorrent network 

### Steganography
- [DissidentX](https://github.com/bramcohen/DissidentX) - DissidentX is encoding messages in files on the web.

### Deniable encryption
- [rubberhose](https://github.com/sporkexec/rubberhose) - Julian Assange's deniable-encryption filesystem.
