What about i2p,Tor? Communism, dictators, some kings, like extreme religions wants to control the flow of information so the minds of the population doesn't catch dangerous memes like freedom movements.
This blocking shit is so annoying. The Chinese shoot themself in the right knee, then in the left knee and say, look, we have the biggest balls! Yes, you may have the biggest balls, but you can't walk anymore dumbo! I experienced that feeding someone his own poison is often the best medicine. Providers world wide should block email access to all China based email for a month or two. Would be a picture for the gods ha…
I'm living in Shanghai. Still connected fine over a IPSec tunnel. I run my own VPN server on Rackspace/AWS (only 2 public IPs), the connection is and has been relatively stable (about a year). 12MBit/s from Shanghai to the IPSec server in Hong Kong, 38ms consistent ping (100MBit/s connection). Using a Cisco SMB router, so the connection is pure IPSec and standard ports.
I'm expecting to see that a version of IP over Avian Carriers with Chinese Characteristics (IPoACwCC) becomes true. Actually we can setup smuggling service like we smuggles brand new iPhones, discounted Louis Vuitton and stuffs out of Hong Kong. In the next decade, for example, when you want to file a pull request to github.com from Beijing, you just place an order at Taobao.com and save your pull request well in an…

I was in Shanghai last month & in previous years bypassing the firewall was not too much of a hassle. When I arrived in Shanghai for the holidays this year my old VPN provider didn't work anymore, plus they added DNS poisoning and bandwidth throttling. I actually upgraded TO StrongVPN, which seems to be one of the affected VPN services now. My conclusion was that it has become effectively impossible to run a western…
Sorry but aren't you better off with a DO VPS running an OpenVPN? I mean using a VPN service or Tor public server is like weaving a banner saying Hey I'm trying to bypass you! . I was able to browse the internet connecting through my home's OpenVPN (DDNS and all) when I was in China (for vacations mostly and some work) without any problems. Of course a home ADSL pipe is good only for 'www' and maybe not even for that…

Well, with all the nationalism I guess they WANT an intranet. And I think they can probably pull it off. The Chinese Intranet is pretty good actually & there's a lot of pride in using home-grown services and hardware, just count the XiaoMi phones next time you're in the subway. (Brilliant brand name BTW)
They don't have google. Baidu does not compare, not the slightest bit. Yes, they have bing. Try finding an address at bing (or baidu) maps in China. It does not work 50% of the time when google is right on the spot.
XiaoMi? Yes, some nice hardware. But the software comes from the west.

My old company has its dev team in Shanghai, we used multiple VPNs: openvpn and a Cisco vpn; we setted them on company's router.Normally it's ok except some special days like every year's session.
Isn't that illegal in China? Or not? Are there any repercussions if you get caught evading in one way or another their national firewall?

The ping would be terrible but if you ship a box of DVDs the bandwidth would be decent.
