Use the Janus Project from Mozilla instead of routing using Google Servers #16

Mozilla has recently released an extension that is (almost) the same as the 
Data Compression Proxy available in Google Chrome for Android. 

The extension has an adblocker and other nice settings. (Convert GIF to video, 
and optimized for latency instead of bandwidth).

Mozilla Janus, unlike Chrome Compression Proxy, is a regular HTTPS proxy. In 
order to use it, simply go to your Internet settings and set the PAC script to 
the following URL: http://janus.allizom.org/. Remember to disable the DCP 
extension in chrome://extensions afterwards.

This extension is devoted to the Google Chrome Compression Proxy, as it gives 
better compression ratio. However, it could theoretically support Janus if 
Google proxy was eventually broken.
