How to watch youtube, dailymotion and other censored VOD websites ?

The main Video On Demand websites are blocked in China, the aim of this post is to explain different ways to access VOD content bypassing the Great Firewall.

  1. Using a Webproxy

    2. There are a lot of webproxy but they very rarely allow to watch flash embedded video.
    I advice you to use plexiserv which is a fast webproxy working pretty well with youtube (but some issues on dailymotion). To make it work do not forget to uncheck the “no script” option.

    If you use other webproxy that provide access to VOD content please leave a comment.

How to access picasaweb and other blocked websites ?

If you are in China those days (August 2009) you may have noticed that picasaweb is blocked. There are of course a ton of websites blocked in China, and that’s why I expose here a simple method to bypass GFW censorship and get access to blocked websites.

This method is working on Windows, Linux and Mac. Illustrations are screenshots obtained on pupeee, a linux distribution based on puppy linux and customized for eeePC.

Used tools:

  • Firefox
  • Foxyproxy a firefox add-on
  • Ultrasurf version 9.5 (u95.exe)
    Ultrasurf (from UltraReach Internet Corporation) is a free and ad-free surfing tool that selects the highest speed anonymous proxy servers to allow you to surf freely.
