The Origin of GOST and Its Use Cases

Original post: https://groups.google.com/g/go-gost/c/Cnh_4aeRVcg.

The idea for gost came about in 2013, which was also my first year at the current company. Upon joining, I found that the company's network restrictions were extreme: the only way to access the internet was through the corporate proxy, and without applying for higher privileges, you could only visit Baidu search — all other websites were blocked. Since our team was working on mobile internet, daily development and research were quite inconvenient.
