facebook proxy browserBack in college, we were not allowed to access Facebook because the school administration believed that the site was such distraction in the way students were supposed to perform in their studies. However, we had many people who knew of a Facebook proxy browser that could be used to access the site without the knowledge of the school administration. I happened to be a friend of these people in college, and I could access Facebook and chat, connect and share with my friends in the site. It was really a great relief to us all.

After college I thought that things were going to be better because I was out of college I realized that I was still going to need the Facebook proxy browser for my job.  It turns out that my new boss thought Facebook was a waste of time. I think that nowadays, most offices have some kind of firewall set up against Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter.

securitales web based proxy browserWell, years down the road, I make it to China, and find out that Facebook is fighting communism or something like that, and Facebook is blocked here. What a bummer. It turns out the whole world is against Facebook. But I'm used to it by now – I've been using the same Facebook proxy browser for years now – SecuriTales.

SecuriTales is great because I can access their secure browser link from my email inbox. This means that I can unblock sites and bypass firewalls on my phone, at work, at home, and even on public computers.  There's no installation, which means it will work everywhere, on any computer, so long as I can open my email or access their site.

As a repeat customer, I can see how great SecuiTales is – This is why I use Securitales

  • It's Fast (I can stream video from YouTube without a problem)
  • It's Reliable
  • It's a Trusted Company (won't use your IP address for spam)
  • It's Cheap ($6 USD / month)

I know you can't just take my word for it (or theirs for that matter), so here are the reasons you should try SecuriTales

  • There's  FREE Trial
  • There's a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee
  • It works in China, which means it's going to work anywhere in the world
  • There a link HERE and NOW. Save yourself the time and effort of sifting through hundreds of services.

You won't know if you never try.  How can you say, "No" to a free trial and a month of guarantee?  Try to find the same deal anywhere else – it just doesn't exist!

Proxy For YouTube In China

My Story about getting a proxy for YouTube in China

Working for another country was my greatest desire in life, but there are of course going to be some cultural differences to overcome. In this case, I was found out too late that sites like Facebook and YouTube were blocked in China.

I applied for work while I was still out of the county for an English teaching company. There were of course vacancies, as there isn't just a huge demand for English teachers in one place in China. The whole country is learning. I thought that it was a good idea – learning a new language, getting some life experience, and leaving that boring old life behind.  I only realized after I arrived that YouTube and all the other social sites were blocked in China. It was a strange concept to me, internet censorship – what was the big deal about YouTube and Facebook anyway? Whatever the reasons, I had to look for a proxy for YouTube in China.

Getting a good proxy for YouTube in China was very easy. I had friends in the new school who had been in China for a while, and they said that people here generally used VPNs and proxies to unblock sites. So I automatically knew that I wanted to get one too.  I only planned to be here for a year or so, and I didn't want to lose contact with friends and family back home. Even Gmail is blocked sometimes here!  But did I need a VPN or a proxy to unblock sites?

I did a bit of research, and without getting into too much detail, this is what I found out.

proxy for youtube in chinaVPN for YouTube in China

  • Can only use on laptop or desktop (SSL/OpenVPN)
  • One license per computer
  • Encrypting and Tunneling data protection
  • More reliable and secure than proxies
  • Software and applications work with VPN
  • Unblocks Hulu, Netflix and BBC iPlayer

Web Based Proxy for YouTube in China

  • No installation
  • One license for multiple devices
  • Does not unblock Hulu, Netflix, and BBC iPlayer
  • Works on laptops and phones
  • Cheaper than VPNs
  • Can use at work and school without "footprints"

As you can see, they're two very different devices.  For me, I because I usually access YouTube, Facebook, and these sites on my iPhone (as well as at home), the no-installation and more than one device per license features pretty much sealed the deal for me. I know that proxies are less secure in general, but I considered three things

  1. I'm not doing anything illegal or "bad", so I don't care if someone tracks my internet activity
  2. Even though they're less secure than VPNs, they're still more secure than nothing at all
  3. I'm just browsing the internet and streaming video – no P2P, no torrents, no gaming, and I rarely download large files or run software that's blocked in China

free trial proxyThis has happened to so many people out there and many have not got any solution at all. From my experience, I can say that proxies really work in breaking firewalls created in order to bock certain sites.  If a proxy can do battle with The GFW, I'm sure proxies can beat any work or school firewall too! 

The proxy for YouTube in China I still use today (three years later, and still in China) is called Securitales.  There are a couple things that make Securitales a good choice.

  • Professional service
  • Unblocks all sites blocked by The GFW
  • Has proven to be a long-lasting, trusted service
  • It's cheap ($6 per month)
  • FREE TRIAL
  • 30 day money back guarantee

If you've seen any other proxies services out there, you'll know what I'm talking about when I say that they look and work pretty unprofessionally. Lots of web based proxies available in China are just  a single page with a place to put your URL and a big bold sign that says "unblock sites HERE".  Do you know who runs the proxy? Are there Terms and Conditions? Do they promise not to sell your email or abuse your IP address data.  Will they be around next week? There are a lot of variables. Securitales has been around since 2009 when these sites started getting blocked in China, and even in March 2011 when tons of VPN services started faltering in China, Securitales maintained their service at normal speed.

So why waste time looking for a proxy for YouTube in china when you can get better access, faster connection and with no-stress reliable service by using Securitales?

securitales web based proxyIn other words, go to www.securitales.com and get started NOW!

This is the best proxy I have come across so far, and I've been in China for what seems like FOREVER.

Facebook Blocked Proxy

facebook blocked proxyYour Way Around Facebook Blocked Proxy

Every time you wake up in the morning, you expect things to be up and running. You wake up, do your grooming, check your messages and mails in the internet and then embark on your daily activities. To tell you the truth, days don’t break the same way; you might wake up in the morning only to find you cannot access your Facebook account.  Don't worry, this isn't going to happen.

But there are lots of reasons that Facebook will be blocked, mostly work or school.  For many people, such as users in China, UAE, Saudi Arabia and other less fortunate countries, access to Facebook is blocked. And you need a proxy to unblock it.  The best thing you can do is find a proxy that is designed to open up Facebook anywhere, from any computer or phone. You've come to the right place to find a Facebook blocked proxy service.

www.securitales.com

Blocking of social networkstwitter blocked is a reality and one can loose access through reasons like; government policies on censorship of information. Some governments may believe that Facebook is being used to propagate hate, incite people to violence or is being used to send anti government messages calling for protests. It may decide to block the social network. The government can also start screening people’s messages to know the status of messages sent and to get information about peoples private natured indulgencies.

All the more reason to use a proxy.  When you unblock Facebook with a proxy, you're not just getting access to stuff on FB, you're also stopping people from spying on you. If you share an internet connection with someone – ie, your boss or other students, you're at risk for being spied on.  Simple software installs or even Firefox add-ons can allow users to see what other people are doing on the same IP address.  A proxy gives you a new IP and makes you anonymous  – completely invisible.

Some employers in private institutions may block Facebook to their employees for various reasons like; spending too much time chatting with friends instead of working or even to stop workers from organizing complaints about the workplace. It has happened to me for a couple of times. Schools can also block Facebook to make students study instead of spend a lot of time on Facebook. Whatever! School sucks anyway.  When Facebook is blocked a proxy can get you access to it, right under your teachers or boss's nose! The only way to access Facebook under such set of circumstances is to have a Facebook blocked proxy under your sleeve. A Facebook blocked proxy works like a bypass or an middle man that allows you to access Facebook even though the Facebook traffic is blocked.

access facebook at workIf you can't get to Facebook, it's because traffic from your IP is blocked from Facebook's IP by a firewall.  You can "jump" this firewall by accessing the proxy, and letting the proxy access Facebook for you. Tricky, right?  It's easy for you. You just type the FB URL into the secure browser. Securitales is an example of a proxy that allows one to unblock Facebook and remain unknown. The anonymity comes from the fact that your IP address cannot be seen and the connection is seen to come from the proxy server.  It's one of the most popular ones around, and works like a charm.  One great thing about Securitales is that no one will know that you've been using this Facebook blocked proxy.  Because there's no installation necessary, you've just to click on the secure link from your email inbox, and go from there.  You don't even have to access the Securitales website, which means there will be no cookies or bits of software left to tip anyone off.

Web Based Proxy in China

web based proxy in chinaNot many people actually know what web based proxies are – and to tell you the truth, until recently, I couldn't tell you what one was either. However, with recent updates to the way The Great Firewall censors our Internet activity here, web based proxies in China have become extremely important to unblocking sites.

Why?

Well, if you own an iPhone, iPad, or Android device, you already know that you can't install a virtual private network on it.  These tablet computers and smart phones usually require that you install a PPTP or L2TP VPN.  But these protocols were blocked in China in March 2011.

This is where the web based proxy in China come in.

proxy for iphone and ipadThe key is the "web based" part.  It's just what it sounds like.  You unblock sites in China by first connecting to a web site with a secure browser.  There is nothing installed on your computer, and this website can be accessed from anywhere that can browse the Internet. Your Mac or PC, your work or school computer, and most importantly, your phone or tablet computer.

Have you ever noticed that when you purchase stuff online, a little lock appears next to the URL you're currently on?  And next to that there's no longer an http:// prefix, but an https://. This is the URL prefix for secure or private connections. Connection that you need permission to access.

proxy for android tabletWeb based proxies in China make use of this private connection, and you'll notice that the blocked URL you type into the secure browser will always be preceded by the https://

So, aside from the versatility of proxies, why else would you want them as opposed to a VPN?

Well, seeing as there's no installation necessary, you can access them easily and without a trace.  When your boss is out of the office, you can open the secure link from your email and check out what's happening on Facebook.  If you've got a few minutes before class and have nothing to do, you can open up the web based proxy browser and watch a Youtube video.

When you're done, close the browser, and no one will notice a difference.

And a web based proxy in China is usually cheaper than a VPN is going to cost you. Securitales, the web based proxy I use in China is only $6 a month.  And I'll let you in on a secret (really, I don't mention this in all of my posts), if you sign up for the FREE TRIAL first, and then sign up for the paid service when the free trial is over, you get a 25% discount.

securitales in chinaThat means for an entire year of service, you pay on $54.

You can check it out at www.securitales.com

You can unblock any site in China, and there's nothing to lose by taking advantage of the free trial.

How to Surf Blocked Sites in China

blocked sites in chinaUse Web Proxies To Surf Internet Anonymously and Surf Blocked Sites in China

Are you often worried about protecting your identity when browsing the internet? Or have you come across a situation where you were unable to access a site just because it was blocked – ie The (infamous) Great Firewall. With exorbitant expansion of internet, risks of identity theft have also increased. Do you know that when you browse the internet, you are easily giving away some of your information such as your IP address, location, browser name, application name and version etc. This is some of the information that can be misused if received by the wrong person (ie Chinese hackers). In order to protect people from becoming victims of internet fraud and scams, many software companies have developed proxies that allow you to surf the internet anonymously.

Moreover, with these proxies, you can also get access to the sites which have been blocked. In China, a number of websites and social networking sites like Facebook are blocked. Previously, people used to make use of VPN connections to unblock these sites, but lately most of the major VPN sites have also been blocked. If you are looking for information on how to surf blocked sites, then there is good news for you. There are web based proxies available which can be used to surf blocked sites.

facebook in chinaThere was a time when I was eager to find out information about how to surf blocked sites because my company had blocked some of the major websites I was a member of.  Companies blocking websites works a lot like how China blocks websites. I came across this web based proxy called ‘Securitales’. This proxy not only allows you to surf blocked sites, but it also allows you to surf internet anonymously. This means that you get two benefits in one package. Apart from these benefits, there are also other benefits of using web based proxies such as Securitales.

blocked sites in chinaIt does not require any installation on your computer which means that no one will ever find out that you are using a proxy to access blocked sites. Moreover, if you are using this web based proxy from your work computer or your school computer, your activities will never be detected. You will have freedom to access those restricted sites and you will get to do all this with complete security and privacy.  This also means that you'll be able to use in on your iPhone (or Android) as well as computer without a problem.  One of the major downfalls of VPNs in that you are limited to one subscription per computer, and in China, VPN protocols for phones are blocked.

How to surf blocked sites remains a popular topic because not many people are aware how great these web based proxies really are.  Even today, you can see tons of forum posts and Yahoo questions popping up in Google. Securitales helps solve the problem of how to surf block sites – instantly.

There's even a FREE TRIAL

I don't do a lot of direct promotion on the site, but Securitales really is a kick-ass way to surf blocked sites in China.

Proxy to Access Facebook in China

August 13th, 2011 Posted in Proxies, Securitales, Unblock Facebook

unblock blocked sites in chinaThere are a number of countries where social networking sites such as Facebook is blocked.  Moreover, there are many schools, colleges and universities where students do not have access to Facebook.  In China, together with Facebook, a number of other major websites are also blocked and this makes things really difficult for people who love to spend time chatting with friends from all over the world.  As is turns out, all of these sites can be unblocked with a web based proxy.

Some years ago when I first came to China, I discovered that most of the major social networking sites had been blocked.  I really needed a way to unblock Facebook because there had not been a single day when I didn’t post messages to my friend or didn’t play my favorite games on Facebook.

I knew that there were some techniques that could be used to unblock Facebook, but I was not confident about using any.  I knew that there was a proxy to access Facebook in China, but I had forgotten the name that once was mentioned by my friend.  I really didn’t want to risk using any other proxy to access Facebook in China than the one that my friend had recommended.  This is because that particular proxy had been tested by my friend and I was told that it is the best one she had tried

proxy to access facebook in chinaI thought for sometime about this particular proxy to access Facebook in China and finally I remembered that it was Securitales.  I immediately turned on my computer and searched for Securitales.  I was happy to find that this proxy to access Facebook in China came with a money back guarantee (30 days!) and if I was not satisfied with it, I could have my money back.

I decided to get it and since it does not require any installation, it was easy to use and it was quick as well.  In no time, I was able to connect with my friends outside of China using this secure and trusted web based proxy called Securitales.  Later on I found out that even if the site goes down in the future, the proxy will still be usable.  This makes it a worthwhile investment because unlike VPN connections and other Facebook unblock software, the Securitales proxy can be used in the future if the website gets blocked by the internet service providers or the government.  So if you are looking for a proxy to access Facebook in China, get Securitales. Did I mention there's a free trial?

Hide My Ass in China

hide my ass in reviewHide My Ass in China

Hide my Ass is a really cool service. They're not expensive, and their VPN is very user friendly. They've got a clean design to their site which makes it easy to navigate. One thing I hate about VPN sites like Black Logic and Secure VPN is that it's hard to find out what's going on in there. How much is the VPN? Can I use it on my Mac? Is it compatible with Windows 7? Should I use PPTP or L2TP on my iPhone? There are so many questions for a new user, especially for someone who hasn't used a VPN before.

This is why Hide My Ass is cool. It's up there with my favorites (12vpn, Astrill, and iVPN) as far as user compatibility goes.

One big problem though – they're blocked.

Ok, not all the time, but a lot of the time. They've got the SSL/OpenVPN needed by users in China, but you can't get to it if the site is blocked.

What would I suggest?

I think Hide My Ass is a cool VPN service.  If you're planning on coming to China, get your VPN set up with them before you go. If you're hear and on the off-chance they're not blocked for a while, you can check them out. Hide My Ass won't do you wrong.

But if HMA continues to be blocked, there are lots of other services featured at the site that aren't blocked – Astrill, 12vpn, iVPN
