Almost all websites that worth visiting are either blocked by Iranian government or by US export laws (SourceForge, Google Code, ...) so people rely heavily on VPNs and proxies. One of the most used proxies is YourFreedom[1] that offers a special service for Iranian people (a free 512 kbps socks proxy). It sounds great, but unfortunately they have been compromised. About 10 months ago, I contacted them (they didn't respond, which makes me a little worried). It looks like Iranian government uses a transparent proxy, so all connections to ems01.your-freedom.de (ems01 through ems24) first redirect to iran.ir and then go to YF's servers! (YF is blocked right now, so I can't re-do this test right now. These images are from my email to YF 10 months ago) http://www.imeezo.com/v/images/49229825994939115647.png http://www.imeezo.com/v/images/49229825994939115647.png http://www.imeezo.com/v/images/46490363986030440278.png http://www.imeezo.com/v/images/46490363986030440278.png A page accessed without a VPN/proxy: http://www.imeezo.com/v/images/98155525346546936123.png http://www.imeezo.com/v/images/98155525346546936123.png The same page, but with a VPN: http://www.imeezo.com/v/images/30239946359511647325.png http://www.imeezo.com/v/images/30239946359511647325.png In the third image, the response is from iran.ir's transparent proxy, not YF servers...
