dear sleepfulls,

while i remain sleepless in mumbai i watch the blocks clear from my mind. when you are wide awake in the middle of night nothing is unaccessible..nothing is unworthy..nothing is sinful..in darkness there are no road blocks, no boundaries, no perimeter fences of minds..
an awake, sleepless mumbai grants acceptance to all..maulvis, marauders, moralists, maimed, mighty, mute, mirthful and mirthless..there are just no boundaries..
walking on the worli sea face i hear the restless sea calling, playing, splashing its waves against the walls of my sleeping conscience, drowning the smallness of my existence under the explosion of its contemptuous roar..
suddenly a text..
“sandy, they have blocked orkut here..sys admin playing the RSS ! can you help?”
deafening splashes against the sleeping conscience..
i will. dear snigdha..16 year old kid sister needs a cyber avatar to eliminate the cyber asurs :)
let there be no blocked sites, no unaccessible knowledge, no blocks..let the boundaries dissolve in the splashing, roaring worli sea..

takes me 21 mins, 23 secs and three lukewarm cups of coffee on the newbie google chrome to salvate snigdha..she is ecstatic..so is radha, priya, anushka, the whole bunch of girls at the hostel..poor sys admin..here are the tricks to annihiliate the rest of the asurs out there !

1. UltraSurf
UltraSurf ,a software product for Internet anti-censorship. It enables users inside countries with heavy Internet censorship to visit any public web sites in the world safely and freely. It enables users to browse any website freely just the same as using the regular browser while it automatically searches the highest speed proxy servers in the background.
2. GPass
Hide your IP address during web surfing. Support streaming audio/video, email, instant messaging, download managers, etc. Break through Internet blocking. Easy-to-use graphical user interface.
3. FreeGate
FreeGate an anti-censorship client software for a secure and faster internet. Users access web sites overseas as fast as their local ones. no installation or change in system setting. FreeGate works together with DynaWeb, a P2P-like proxy network system.
4. Garden GTunnel
GTunnel a Windows application that works as a local HTTP or SOCKS proxy server. After setting proxy to GTunnel in web browser or other Internet applications, the traffic will go through GTunnel and our server farm before it reaches its original destination.

5. JAP

JAP makes it possible to surf the internet anonymously and unobservably. Instead of connecting directly to a webserver, users take a detour, connecting with encryption through several intermediaries, so-called Mixes. JAP uses a predetermined sequence for the mixes. Such a sequence of linked mixes is called a Mix Cascade. Users can choose between different mix cascades.

6. Your Freedom
Your Freedom services makes accessible what is unaccessible to you, and it hides your network address from those who don’t need to know. It turns your own PC into an uncensored, anonymous web proxy and an uncensored, anonymous SOCKS proxy that your applications can use, and it can even get you connected to the Internet just as if you were using an unrestricted DSL or cable connection.

7. Hopster
Hopster is all about open, safe and uncensored internet access. At home, schools, universities and offices worldwide, even in countries where Freedom of Speech is a political challenge. Hide your real IP address and protect yourself from nosy people and wannabe-hackers.

8. Freenet
Freenet is free software which lets you publish and obtain information on the Internet without fear of censorship. To achieve this freedom, the network is entirely decentralized and publishers and consumers of information are anonymous. Without anonymity there can never be true freedom of speech, and without decentralization the network will be vulnerable to attack.

9. Tor
Tor is a software project that helps you defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security. Tor works with many of your existing applications, including web browsers, instant messaging clients, remote login, and other applications based on the TCP protocol.

10. HotSpot Shield
HotSpot Shield creates a secure virtual private network (VPN) over your connection allowing you to bypass any ISP firewalls and lets you visit even those websites which are blocked by your ISP. It can also be used to visit those websites which are specifically meant for US users e.g. Pandora, Hulu etc.
These Tools will surely help to all those who are not able to access Blocked site in their offices or schools.
