Plain HTTP and HTTPS differ here: http://fortune.com is intermittent, https://fortune.com is not blocked.

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.

About fortune.com and the Great Firewall

Is fortune.com blocked in mainland China?

Results vary across fortune.com: of 21 URLs tested, 1 is blocked, 4 are disrupted some of the time and 16 load normally. The Great Firewall resets the connection. 613 tests have been run under this domain since 2014-06-03, the most recent on 2026-07-28.

Why does http://fortune.com behave differently from https://fortune.com?

Plain HTTP and HTTPS differ here: http://fortune.com is intermittent, https://fortune.com is not blocked. 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.

How can I reach fortune.com from mainland China?

A VPN or another circumvention tool routes the request outside mainland China, past the filtering that blocks fortune.com. GreatFire runs GreatFire VPN; the Analyzer also tests the domains of many VPN and proxy providers, so you can check whether one is reachable before relying on it.
