Bypassing The Great Firewall of China

Posted by timothy on from the subterfuge dept.

An anonymous reader writes "On the BBC website they have a article about bypassing China's firewall for those living inside the country. It covers the usual idea of proxies or sending the content by e-mails. But it also suggests that with enough proxies the goverment couldn't block them all."

    If you're *in China* and they're blocking the BBC, how can this be useful?

    Then the government will simply block everything and allows access to "approved" website.

    The worst problem is the Chinese government heavily brainwash its people with controlled media etc, so most Chinese people don't believe in any information from the outside world. I'm glad Hong Kong still has uncensored Internet access, for now.
