How to Access Facebook in China on Mac OS 2017

How to access Facebook in China on Mac OS? I am going to China with some of my friends for a business negotiating as well as traveling to Xian in a few days. And I learn that many foreign websites especially social media site like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Youtube, Netflix and Hulu are blocked. However, we can’t work and travel without Facebook. Facebook can help us to keep touch with friends and relatives, share interesting stories, beautiful pictures and images and so on, we particularly want our other friends and family know what happens to us during this trips to China. So do you have any good solutions?

Why Facebook is Banned in China?

Facebook is an easy-use online social media. It is not difficult to register an account, and once you log into Facebook, you can contact with friends, family and other people you know. People on Facebook can share photos and videos with each other, send messages and pose stories. It is fast to keep up with friends, see what friends are up to, share update, photos and videos, get notified when friends like and comments on your posts, and Play games and use your favorite apps. Many Facebook users can’t live without Facebook in daily life, and Facebook becomes a very important and instant communication tool for social activities. You even can learn what’s happening at other corners of the world. Besides, Facebook can work on different device with different system including Windows computer, Mac OS X, android phone & tablet, and  iOS device like iPhone & iPad, so Facebook becomes more and more popular with internet users.

However, Facebook is banned in China. If you live in China or just travel to China, you will find you cannot access Facebook in a normal way, and you will just get message saying “This site can’t be reached”.  In China, Facebook was blocked following the July 2009 Ürümqi riots because Xinjiang independence activists were using Facebook as part of their communications network.  Therefore, in order to strengthen controls on network system of China and preserve national network safety and security, China keeps upgrading its internet censorship called Great Firewall. China’s Firewall becomes a strong internet censorship to control and suppress what can be accessed, published, or viewed on the Internet. Great Firewall is particularly created to block potentially unfavorable incoming data from foreign countries. To censor national internet, firewall of China severely restricts access to certain websites especially social media websites and apps like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Line, Google, Google service, Gmail, Youtube, Vimeo, Netflix, Hulu and VOIP services like Skype and Snapchat. So what’s the best way to access Facebook in China on Mac OS?

Facebook is banned in China. The Chinese government controls Internet content and restricts, deletes, or bans content it deems is not in the interest of the state. According to a government transcript released in the fall of 2014, Lu Wei, director of China’s State Internet Information Office, said that “foreign Internet companies entering China must at the base level accord to Chinese laws and regulations. First, you can’t damage the national interests of the country. Second is you cannot hurt the benefits of Chinese consumers. If China’s laws and regulations are respected, we welcome all of the world’s Internet companies to enter the Chinese market.” These tight controls imposed have resulted in the ban of foreign social media sites, like Facebook.

Hi,i need your help urgently. There is ransomware on my iPad mini. It is something saying “Cannot Open Page. Safari cannot open the page because the address is invalid.” It is really nasty and annoying. My Safari is completely blocked and i can’t use it to browser anything on the Internet. I can’t watch videos, view pictures, read articles at all on the internet. It accuses me of watching child porn or something like this and asks me to pay a fine. I have not done such things.

Whether the accusation of watching porn is true or not. Here is the truth. In order to drive the victims to pay the imaginary fine as soon as possible, the virus claims to be a powerful law enforcement authority to threaten the victims into panic. While, Even though it is just a trick to fool victims into paying money, many users still hurry to make the payment because of being nervous at the sight of the virus. To make it look more like a real authority, the virus often steals name and logo of the agency to display together with a message.

How to Hide Your IP Address with a VPN Proxy

How can I access websites that blocks IPs that aren’t from a given country? It doesn’t necessarily have to be free, as long as it’s secure and can’t be sniffed (i.e. not those free php proxies but something reliable that won’t be sniffed).

Description – How to Hide IP Address with a VPN Proxy

You’re just trying to check out a website and they’ve locked you out because you’re not living in the right country. It’s ridiculous, but luckily you can get around the restrictions with VPN. There’s not much you can do to stop ISP logging policies in the near future. You can protest and sign petitions till you’re blue in the face, but policy change takes years, and internet service providers will still own the pipes. It’ll always be in their best interest to keep the government and law enforcement happy so they can stay in business. But policy aside, using a VPN is the best way to encrypt your internet traffic to keep it private before you send it down the tubes toward your ISP and who knows who else.

Nowadays, VPN is a convoluted term for many things. The main idea with VPNs is to use an underlay Network in order to build a Virtual Overlay network. The underlay is usually the internet or the physical network that is used for packet forwarding. VPN is therefore a general terminology that refers to the different way to build a Virtual network. All Internet Service Providers (ISP) will log the data of your IP address. If you use the VPN then they can only see the connection of your VPN. It won’t let anyone spy on your website history.
