How To Access Blocked Sites Via Proxy

Free PROGRAMS

Your boss at work might have restricted you from visiting certain sites like facebook, youtube, twitter and so on just thinking they are distractions. It might even be your school has a very fast WLAN but the network administrator makes it impossible to watch music videos on youtube or hang out with your peeps on facebook. Crazy, huh? Are you even aware some governments restrict their citizens from visiting certain sites? ( I've heard about China, Saudi Arabia and there's word around that you can't access some sites in Malaysia too). There are even some websites that block visitors from certain countries from accessing their contents but whatever the case may be, there's a way out and after reading this post, you'll definitely have access to all those blocked websites. I'm not sure there's a site that can block me from accessing them even if they don't allow visitors from Nigeria, and I'm not sure I'll be bothered if my network operator blacklists some sites cuz I'll still forge a way through anyway.

There are different ways to bypass censorship but they all do the same thing: your computer sends data to the proxy server, the proxy server sends your request to the site you want to visit, the site sends the reply which the proxy server gets and displays to you. You get to visit the site and it's gonna look like you're just visiting that proxy server, that's the basic principle.

1. Using Anonymous Proxies

This is the easiest way to bypass any form of censorship and access blocked sites. You only need to get a working anonymous proxy with it's port and input it into your browser. Getting a working anonymous proxy is the first thing and you can get lots of them from hidemyass.com. They've been around for some time now and their proxy list is always updated so you won't be left with just a bunch of dead proxy servers. You should select anyone that supports HTTPS so you will be able to access secure sites (https://). Just key in the IP and port into your browser and you're good to go.

2. Using Proxy Sites/Proxy Servers (PHP, CGI, GLYPE)

This is another way to access blocked sites and it even looks easier than the one above. You don't need to tamper with your broser proxy settings or download any software, you just need to find a proxy site or build your own. You can run a google search for free php proxy server or visit phpproxies.com or phpMyProxy for fast access to those blocked sites.
