Can someone speak with authority as to how easy it is (or isn't) for tech-savvy Chinese to get around the GFOC, and what techniques are used?

- IsaacL 15y agoThe most common methods are using web proxies and VPNs. Web proxies usually get blocked fairly quickly, whereas VPNs normally cost money. I don't know what you mean by "tech-savvy" but both are widely used by ordinary citizens.
- jcitme 15y agoWell, if the chinese GFW only blocked DNS, a local hosts file and tunneling DNS from unconventional methods can easily bypass it, without setting up a full blown proxy/VPN. Since china now uses more sophisticated methods, how can the GFW be bypassed?
