Does this mean twitter's API is blocked in china? It seems like an open API is a great defense against getting blocked, if you already have an active developer community who can work to unblock it.
It would be cool if someone could make an open source project deployable on GAE or heroku to proxy twitter. It could self redirect daily to another instance of the app, making it unblockable. I don't know much about blocking btw.
- est 17y agoI am thinking of Google infrastructure has a BIG advantage now, last time I checked all youtube IP lists, it's about 1.6MB, I can't image how effective a firewall could block all of these IP's. Currently Google's services could be accessed with simple technics, just modify your browsers PAC (proxy auto config) to this http://gfwtf.googlecode.com/svn/gfwtf.pac http://gfwtf.googlecode.com/svn/gfwtf.pac And just curious: does anyone happens to know an Akamai node within China that could deliver contents over GFW?
