I could just visit 1.2.3.4 to reach the captive portal, but my question was more about "how can they allow based on SNI if that is encrypted too"?
Regardless of what DNS server is used, my connection requests to websites (whether to a real messaging site, or a faked xray one, or whatever) might be using ECH, so how could they allow the request in that case? I don't think they can control whether those messaging services are using ECH either.
