Subject: Google Web Accelerator Is Circumventor Of China Censorware?


[For IP]

Fons Tuinstra at "China Herald" blog reports:
http://www.chinaherald.net/2005/05/internet-google-web-accelerator- beats.html

"But a reader of this weblog suggested that in combination with IE
Google's new tool would also beat the internet censor. Well, that was
enough encouragement for me to have a try. Indeed, the web accelerator
helps to beat our internet nanny, at least I got to the BBC news
services very easy. I do not think that Google wanted to bring down
the firewall (as far as it still is in place with so many proxies
around) but they effectively did."
