Another petty official has popped up and boastfully informed us that tomorrow they’re going to start cutting off our internet:
They’ve created nothing in their lives, done nothing useful, live on the money we pay them, and yet still presume to decide what counts as “harm to society” and which social networks we’re allowed to use.
Every time statements like this appear—and it’s happening more and more often—links start circulating online to guides on “how to bypass blocks.” I decided to collect the most popular ones in one place. Thanks to Twitter users for the links.
If you have more links to solid guides, leave them in the comments.
