In response to this crackdown, as well as to bypass the many restrictions in many Middle Eastern countries, a small army has been mustered to defeat them . . .
Hackers to the rescue.
- Freegate, a tiny software program connects computers inside of China to servers in the free world.
- Circumventor connects volunteers in the free world with Web users in China and the Middle East who then use the volunteer personal computers to read forbidden sites.
- Tor, a modified version of a US Naval Research Laboratory project, disguises the identities of Chinese Web surfers by sending messages through several layers of hosts to obscure their path

Hey! Thanks for the tips.
Yeah, I know some services that won't let Chinese IP addresses sign up unless they become paid members, because they're worried about the spam issue. It's a shame to have to isolate a country's internet activity because of the actions of a few.
yeah, i agree. but it still sucks, not being free to surf or blog what u want...
