How to unblock Facebook in China? How to bypass internet censorship in China?

According to our last article, Facebook, as the world’s leading social network, is still censored in many countries, such as Syria, Iran, or Vietnam.

This website is also blocked in China since July 2009 Ürümqi riots. The serie of violent riots opposing Hans against Uyghurs was about to worsen with a global protest on social networks. The Chinese governement therefore decided to block any access to the website. When you try to access Facebook, an error message occures “Network Timeout”.

Interestingly, the Chinese equivalent to Facebook remains available.

According to Abcnews.go.com:
One possible explanation for the choice to block major foreign sites and not their domestic equivalents is that the Chinese government might be more concerned about international criticism than internal tension.

Since 2009, it’s still impossible to access to Facebook’s website. The situation of the internet censorship in China doesn’t seem hopeful for now.

See below our quick tutorial about how a chinese internet user can restore its online freedom, security and privacy on the web.

How to unblock Facebook with a VPN service?
