I am in China right now. I just tried to Google Bloomberg and my connection was stopped. I can not connect to bloomberg.com. I can not read this BBC article.

Reply here and I'll test whatever you want me to.
- seanmcdirmid 14y agoAppend https to the BBC article to read it behind the GFW. The https hack sometimes works when the government is blocking content on individual cites vs. complete sites.
- shimon_e 14y agoI think they have cracked some parts of https. If you make a prior to a non blocked page in https and then go to a block page sometimes it works. If you make your first https connection to a block page it is blocked. Maybe this is due to the way https works. I haven't looked into it. Google uses https and they still managed to monitor all the traffic and block keywords. There is a good reason why it is stated change your passwords before you come to China and after you leave.
- zrgiu_ 14y agointeresting.. It works with HTTPS, but the certificate is not the original BBC one.
- shimon_e 14y agoJust notice that too. If I get some time next week I'll look into it.
