Mixed

Results vary across claude.com: of 7 URLs tested, 3 are blocked and 4 are disrupted some of the time. The Great Firewall silently drops its packets so requests time out, blocks the connection outright and poisons its DNS. 26 tests have been run under this domain since 2026-03-25, the most recent on 2026-10-01.

Plain HTTP and HTTPS differ here: http://claude.com is blocked, https://claude.com is intermittent.

The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.
