Unblock Syrian Blogs!

Blogspot is now apparently completely blocked in Syria. I am republishing part of a post from last December in addition to other resources in the hope that some blocked Syrian bloggers may be able to use the information to bypass web censorship of their blogs- that is of course, if they manage to see this post.

Circumventing Web Censorship

There are several methods to evade censorship as outlined below including this recently released free software, Psiphon. The aim of this software as stated by its developers is as follows: psiphon is a human rights software project developed by the Citizen Lab at the Munk Centre for International Studies that allows citizens in uncensored countries to provide unfettered access to the Net through their home computers to friends and family members who live behind firewalls of states that censor.

Bypassing censorship through proxies (from Open Directory Project: http://www.dmoz.org)

FindProxy.org - Has articles about anonymous web browsing, internet security, and internet privacy.
Free Public Proxy Servers List - Regularly updated HTTP open/public proxy list

Proxy.org - Contains a list of web based proxies, as well as a forum to discuss related topics.

We'll manage so don't you worry. I guess they do it so that we always find the internet a challenging place.

good info, usually i use http://neofirefox.org , http://nicetestimonial.org , and http://asiaxnet.com for unblock my blocked url

Dubai Jazz said...

can you believe it Abu Kareem, all these proxy websites are blocked in the UAE?

However, http://nicetestimonial.org, which was suggested by anonymous, is not blocked and is working out well!

(p.s.: blockage of sites in the UAE is done based on moral considerations only!)

I am thoroughly impressed by the way you present your article, information and the ability to give unknown facts is the most surprising factor of all.
