What options are everyone using for getting around the blocks on sites like BBC News and Wikipedia, etc.
Like most people I think I originally used anonymouse, which was a bit slow and came with ads, but worked when you needed it to.
After a while I shifted to proxify.com which is similar to anonymouse but paid, ad-free and has some additional useful features.
Since then I've installed the Gladder plug in for Firefox, which has been fantastic - works virtually transparently, you just need to specify sometimes which sites you want it to work with. Free. I'll probably not renew my proxify subscription.
I've always been aware of other options such as Tor, but have never really felt a need to use them - other methods have always seemed easier than having to download and install anything.
Am adding a poll so you can select your most commonly used method - obviously sometimes you'll use more than one, just opt for the one you use most. Let me know if I forgot any.
Hey Imron are you using a tunneling service or are you being clever and have built one yourself?
Anyone can pay for a SSH Tunnel now even at relatively low costs. Sometimes it can be too slow though.
By the way, the English version of Wikipedia is accessible through the Great Firewall again since a few days.
Not sure how long it'll last this time though ...
