Hello,
1- In any case, I need the OpenVPN Connect program or similar programs to connect to the OpenVPN server, and these programs are detected by Internet censorship devices.

2- Do you mean that in http encapsulation mode, an eavesdropper can see the contents of the packets?

3- Can you point me to an article about setting up OpenVPN with Stunnel?
