The Chinese censorship authorities will block any site which they deem to contain material detrimental (even tangentially) to the Chinese Communist Party. The way they do this is by blocking at the IP address level. A crude tool indeed. Most websites in the world are hosted on Shared Hosting Accounts so if an IP address gets red flagged it could potentially impact hundreds of other sites hosted on the same server, using the same IP address. To create an analogy, it’s a bit like living in a shared house and one of the members is caught for being involved in illicit activities.

Among blocked sites are such popular sites as Google services (including Gmail, Google maps, Google docs and others) YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Wikipedia, VOIP services like Skype and Snapchat and tones of others popular resources. 
So if you are going to China, you need to care about your Internet freedom in advance. Access the blocked Site in China on your Mac, you can setup vpn connection on your device using systems features. This is much more secure than using any additional application. Read the rest of this post »
