Censorship of HTTPS in China

The S in HTTPS stands for Secure. Any URL that starts with HTTPS:// is using a secure, encrypted connection to connect to the web server. That means that the Great Firewall of China cannot block traffic based on keywords in the request. It can, however, still block websites using DNS poisoning and/or IP blocking. Users in China accessing the HTTPS versions of for example Google (https://www.google.com.hk) or Wikipedia (https://zh.wikipedia.org) can lookup any keywords including thousands that are otherwise blocked.

The websites www.drben.net and www.chinareport.com have been blocked from mainland China since 2002. I am the owner, so I know.

HI,
Can You Please explain me your Site .. What you do and etc..
chandru.rt@gmail.com

my gmail and orkut is not opening in firefox

mine too

Great database! Real time testing would be good!

Thanks! Now we do have real time testing. Test away!

操他妈的反人类的共匪

Now it's time to look up and read about all the keywords I'm not familiar with. Thanks!

well done, in fact, u & fellows could made some interlinks that express mobile signal communication, that would be fascinating!

Me parece increíble que éstos tiempos pueda haber censura todavía, pero naturalmente eso es muy facil decir ésto por mí parte, si nos acostumbramos a ver con buenos ojos la censura en el mundo.

Todo nuestro apoyo y solidaridad, hermanos.

I find it incredible that these times may be censored yet, but of course that's very easy for me to say this, if we used to look favorably on censorship in the world.

All our support and solidarity, brothers.

your test report Amazon as not blocked, but I can only access Amazon from Shanghai through my VPN. How is that ?

David: Are you consistently unable to access http://www.amazon.com without a VPN? We've seen temporary glitches in access to Amazon from China before, but no permanent block. What kind of Internet connection are you on?

Too many stupid people in China push the government to block some site. To block freegate is very simple and easy, but the government doesn't block it. That is just a sample. So, you may need a free internet, you can use some tool, but for those stupid people, blocking can help them, without being confused or misleaded

i;m from malaysia why this web site xhamster are block at my country ??so how to unblock that??

we go to china time xhamster unblock all ill wil find him il do not rust angel,s wil find you !!!!!!!!!!!

Trust me

down the skype but cant install for it shows "software not compatable with window 32"....

To Anonymous:
Yes, we need a free internet. But it is not your business. So you can go away and take your wages.

My website, www.tsuru-bird.net is nothing but a website of photos of birds and animals that I have photographed. There is NOTHING on my site in any way that would be a reason for any 'reasonable' person / ISP / country / government, to block it!!!!! Unless looking at a picture of a bird is somehow so wrong and against China in some way!!!

Hey Taylor I think you should be proud and put a widget on your website.
en.greatfire.org/widget

Monte Taylor you may consider switching to another hosting, which means getting your server's IP and ISP changed. Tested traceroute from china and cannot get to international nodes.

Hey guys,

I am currently about 260 and 5'9, closer to 30s with regard to % of bodyfat than 20s, and I'm beginning to feel somewhat sluggish, which will be way too early for my age :(

I'm trying to begin with the paleo diet however there's plenty of conflicting info about it. To make it easier - I figure I'd just begin already and tweak my procedure from there.

I am determining between 2 novels right now (LINK) - Has anyone read either/can indicate which one is more complete summary of all paleo details?

Really excited to start out becoming a little healthier and lose some weight!

IT DOESNT BOTHER ME ONE BIT THAT WESTERN SITES ARE BLOCKED IN CHINA, ESPECIALLY KNOWING THAT ON THE FLIP SIDE, CHINESE SITES CAN THRIVE AS A DIRECT RESULT. I THINK THAT WESTERN WEBSITES SUCH AS FACEBOOK, BLOGSPOT, WORDPRESS, AND GOOGLE ARE MONOPOLIZING THE INTERNET. I DID HOWEVER WANT TO SAY THAT RAPIDGATOR IS BLOCKED AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW THAT IS A THREAT TO THE GOV? I DO HOWEVER SEE HOW YOUTUBE, BLOGSPOT, AND GOOGLE ARE A DIRECT THREAT TO THE GOV.

the message is more and more
