Bypassing Internet Censorship
« on: March 27, 2014, 13:50:44 PM »
In preparation for an AK party landslide (only joking... I hope!) here is one method for bypassing TTNet filters.  How long it'll work for in the event of a full block on social media & VPNs, I'm not sure.  It has limitations which the government may utilise to block traffic, but its a start.

Download Tor Browser and install - Windows, iOS and Linux versions available.  Initially, just use the default settings.

Extensive FAQ available, and in the event you do find it useful, a donation helps the project carry on.

Looks like YouTube is now on the sh1tlist.  Use the above method and request that YouTube use HTML5 when you visit - link here.  Unfortunately Tor has issues with Flash movies due to security concerns.

For those who prefer Google Chrome, you can try using the Zenmate extension.  I havent tested it for YouTube as I'm not in TR yet so when the YT ban kicks in, as it will over the next 24hrs maybe someone (tech savvy?) can have a go and let us know the results.

I haven't bothered posting the various DNS workarounds, there's plenty of info out there on them but I'm not sure how long they'll work for.

Edit:  Apparently works for Opera also, but again, haven't tested it.

Nope.  Its a Google Chrome or Opera only extension.  Version of Tor Browser for iOS though, just not as handy for YT.

No problem.

I've just been told that Tor is now being blocked, anyone fancy giving it a try and confirming?

Opera users:  Download latest version and under settings click on "off road mode".  This uses Opera's resources rather than local and is how a lot of folks get round the ISP blocking of PB, KAT etc in the UK.

My earlier predictions of this becoming a cyber game of cat and mouse looks to be coming true.  Not good.
