Agree. Why anyone would openly discuss, and name names, is like giving the blockers direction. Problems are back again today.

that's one possibility. another is that they know every nook and cranny like the backs of their hands but derive a twisted pleasure from keeping people guessing and frustrated at not knowing what will and will not work on any given day.

If you think that 'they' don't know that you guys are using VPN or any other 'proxy' think again. It's their jobs to know.

haha, 'they'. 'they' know 'you' are using 'it'.

Ha.Ha. Yeah!

Yeh! but it kips 'em buzy, and dem cost moor than arthur kwai.

Nary a prob here. You just got to be smarter than the blocker folks. It can can still be done fine in China.

But posting details on a public forum is just dumb. Get real!

if the blockers are actually reading gokunming forum posts to plan their next move, why don't we give them false info to throw them off?

The firewall cops don't need to read gokm to block VPNs. VPN traffic carries several unique IP signatures (you can read the spec online if you're truly bored), so the carrier need only scan the trillions of IP packets for that unique signature, extract the destination IP address, then block it - or worse - blackhole the traffic. Blocked traffic will issue an error message. Blackholed traffic just times out, which is probably what most of you are experiencing.
