Ten years ago, I was working for a US post-production company that produced a one-off game show in China. We used OpenVPN to monitor our servers, but it was being blocked. I ended up setting up a new OpenVPN server using obfsproxy, and it worked. It might be worth trying in your situation: https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/TrafficObfuscatio...

It should be an OS-level implemented feature at the TCP/IP layer so all non-local traffic is unrecognizable to anyone but the true recipient.

IDS/IPS's are virtually worthless these days anyway so I can't see much downside if every Window's, Mac's and Linux OS's network traffic appeared to be completely random/obfuscated out-of-box.

But sir, how will they protect the children, if the OS does that?
Good one
I've heard it claimed that IPv6 was supposed to bake in IPsec as part of the core protocol which I think would have given you what you want, but 1. obviously that's not how history actually turned out, and 2. honestly I'm kind of glad that it didn't because I would rather not be stuck with IPsec forever.
