How to access blocked websites like MySpace, Bebo, Hi5, Youtube at school or the office?
This article suggests workarounds to help you to unblock access to restricted websites at universities, school and offices.
Background: Blocking access to undesirable Web sites has been a common government tactic but China, Iran, Saudi Arabia are believed to extend greater censorship over the net than any other country in the whole wide world.
Most of the blocked or blacklisted websites in Saudi Arabia are about religion, women, sex, and health. They even block access to websites that sell swimming or bathing suits. In China, websites that talk about sex, Tibet or Democracy are blocked.
Social sites are often blocked including Google News, Typepad, Ebay, Blogs, Friendster , MySpace, Bebo, Photobucket, Netlog, , Youtube, Hi5 etc...
There are always legitimate reasons to bypass the internet filters and unblock websites. The following tricks will show how to access all websites at school, college, offices or at your home.
1: Use a URL redirection service like tinyurl.com or snipurl.com. These domain forwarding services sometimes work as the address in the the url box remain the redirect url and do not change to the banned site.
2: Use a web proxy list service see this Proxylist .Thought some websites like Youtube are not always allowed through a proxy so see also this Youtube proxy list.
3: To access blocked websites, type the IP number instead of the URL in the browser address bar. However, if your blocking software maps the IP address to the web server (reverse DNS lookup), the website will still remain blocked for you.
4: Enter the URL in Google or Yahoo search and then visit the cached copy of the page. To retrieve the page more quickly from Google's cache, click "Cached Text Only" while the browser is loading the page from cache.
5: You can access blocked or restricted websites by using Yahoo Babelfish or Google Translate language tools as a proxy server. You just have to invoke the Google translate service with the same language pair like English to English. Assuming that Google is accessible in your school, you should be able to access any website with this method
6: Anonymous Surfing - Browse the internet via free proxy server. A proxy server (or proxies) is a normal computer that hides the identity of computers on its network from the Internet.
Which means that only the address of the proxy server is visible to the world and not of those computers that are using it to browse the Internet. Just visit any proxy server with your Web browser and enter a URL or the address of the blocked website.
