China has undoubtedly the most strict internet security in the whole world, and the citizens of China do have to pay for it with being informed with news and affairs only of China and to be completely out of any connection with the rest of the world. And China is one of those countries in the whole world which is most affluent in terms of technology, internet security as well as physical security, so it is very much expected that the security on the internet in China would be one of the strictest ones in the whole world. And they do live up to this expectation with their firewall which is also known as the Great Firewall of China, which is undoubtedly the strictest firewall in the whole world. But having an email account is such a thing which is mandatory for every person in today’s world, and Google’s Gmail is one of the best service providers when it comes for one to set up their email account. But unfortunately, even Gmail is blocked in China. As much sorrow that brings to the people of China, it also brings more inconvenience because email is needed in every aspect of life from work to having a social media account.

Are you used to watch Vimeo in your dalily life? As we know, Vimeo was the first video sharing site to support high-definition video. What to do if you can’t access Vimeo in China? As we know, 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. So the police decide to charge everyone in the house whether they were involved or not. If you lived in a neighboring single apartment you would not be charged.

Use VPN to unblock Vimeo in China

If you’ve ever had to connect to a corporate network while working remotely, you may already be familiar with VPN technology. In the simplest terms, it creates a secure, encrypted connection, which can be thought of as a tunnel, between your computer and a server operated by the VPN service. In a professional setting, this tunnel makes you part of the company’s network as if you were physically sitting in the office, hence the name. While connected to the VPN, all your network traffic passes through this protected tunnel, and no one in between can see what you are up to. A consumer VPN service does the same thing, but for the purposes of protecting data and identity. Read the rest of this post »
