Getting around the GFC

February 20th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Geek Stuff, Taking in; on; and to Shanghai (or China in general)

I’m back here and logged on to what CG calls China’s intranet. Also known as the GFC, I cannot access blogspot, wordpress, wikipedia, etc.

One way to access blogspot is by using pkblogs.com, or any anonymous proxy servers.

But if you’re using Firefox, which you should be instead of the annoying IE, you can use a script to do a quick fix and be able to access blogspot, wordpress, wikipedia, and livejournal.

Check it out here: How To Spot A Blogspot Blog (A Quick Fix)

Flickr images are also blocked. See here to gain access (limited to Firefox).

    [...] can view blogspot blogs by tweaking some script in my firefox (see here for getting around the GFW), but I end up with weird censorship such as this “see no evil” [...]
