It's the DNS server doing it. Ichina telecom has been doing it for years. Change your DNS server and it should go away.

The reason the .cn sites sometimes get redirected is the same. Your dns server your VPN is using probably doesn't have the site cached so asks a DNS server in China for the information.

If you want to run your own check out this list:

alternativeto.net/software/dropbox/?license=opensource

But a quick search on Baidu found dozens of alternatives that shouldn't be blocked by China. Assuming the files aren't of a sensitive nature then that's going to be your hassle free bet.

Just search for 百度网盘,酷盘,百度云,微云。。。any major internet company in china + or 网盘 should get plenty of results.

So why not just setup your own website or ftp server? Outside of China it starts at only a few dollars a month for around 20 GB of space.. Assuming these aren't huge files I don't imagine it costing too much money in China.

There was the annual march in Hong Kong for democracy, and related protests this week. That's probably why it was blocked. When there are protests, "elections", or anything important almost everything gets blocked then. If you want reliable service you just have to get a VPN.

Also look at the roads that were just recently redone. In the north they aren't even a year old and the top layer is rapidly decaying. When the holes get big enough to do serious damage to small cars they just put a traffic cone in it....

If it's banned for industrial use doesn't that mean there are some pretty nasty heavy metals in the water? Why would they allow shrimp to be fished in the past? Do they want people to get cancer or something?

Cheese tasted great. Much better than other pizza joints.

Excellent salad bar. Hamburgers are usually ok. The fancier dishes were a little lacking.

Giving it a 4 stars for the salad bar. If you were going there for "fine dining" then probably best to go somewhere else.

The store also has some nice imported food(though obviously Metro is cheaper for some things). The freshly baked goods are nice too.

Seems to be pretty hit or miss. First time I went there the pizza and hamburgers were great. 2nd time the pizza was terrible, and the hamburger was ok. 3rd time the pizza was ok, but people were smoking inside by the time we left. Guess the no smoking policy is not enforced.

Not bad. Pretty much what you would expect, but expensive for China.

Expensive, but decent bread. Other places are better, but not bad if you're in a hurry.
