Yep, my connection is "IWF'd"... I had no idea this kind of thing was going on. At least when they block a website in China they block it with a clear message instead of just silently breaking its functionality.
- dav-id 16y agoIn China they do it silently with no message, you see just a 404 from your browser.

- X-Istence 16y agoMy friend in China says it isn't a 404, the connection is just RST'ed to both sides and dropped. Simple, and effective. Your browser should display a "connection reset by peer" message or something to such an effect.
