Search for Google's "New Approach" post, get locked out of baidu.com
- vinutheraj 17y agoWow, it's the first time I am taking a look at baidu, and the UI seems to be so familiar ... very much related to google! Maybe this is one of the reasons people are unwilling to shift to google from baidu, both seem similar to them, nothing new in google !
- dskhatri 17y agoI actually like the animated links on Google.cn's page. How well would that type of search page fly in the US? I know Japanese media (news, weather, adverts) tend to use a lot of bright colors and cartoon like characters.
- judofyr 17y agoDon't blame Baidu — it works on any server located in China. Just append "?google.blogspot.com" and you're blocked: http://www.faas.cn/?google.blogspot.com http://www.faas.cn/?google.blogspot.com
- angelbob 17y agoAwesome. It only locks out the site you searched on -- so you can do that with faas.cn, then go to baidu with no problems. Sneaky!
- est 17y agoIt can be used against arbitrary oversea ip and ip:port pair over TCP. GFW can also act like a 10x amplifier for arbitrary UDP DoS Best part is that, GFW is implemented on the backbone, no body can stop it :) also the RST will have an exact 90 seconds countdown, not 5 or 10 minutes, unless you trigger another keyword.
- robryan 17y agoIf Google were to put a link on there front page which kept using a different key as an argument to link to the post would they block the whole of Google to?
- pwmanagerdied 17y agoThey'd probably just block blogspot. If Google really wanted to, they could cycle through practically endless different domain and IPs, but the firewall could probably just pull the current ones out of the pages as they were loaded, if necessary. Or, yeah, just block Google. If they did something like that, it doesn't seem unlikely.
