How can I get full access to Facebook in China? - pinkie - 02-26-2013 10:12 AM
I am currently living in Beijing, China. I used to be able to access Facebook just fine, but now it has been blocked. Whenever I use a proxy, I can't status update, comment, message, etc. If anybody knows how to fully access Facebook, I will give full points. Thank you very much!

Proxies don't work. But after many hours of working on it, I found a solution. Let me find the link for you. I will edit this post with the link for the program to access facebook once I find it.

FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS! Just run the .exe file, and it will open Firefox as well as two other programs. Wait until you are connected to the Tor network, and then don't forget to enable Tor in the bottom right hand corner of Firefox browser.
It's somewhat slow, but until China unblocks facebook and youtube, I'll be using it.

I know several people in China and they all use the personal VPN service to unblock China. They change IP addresses constantly and have multiple methods and don't get blocked. It's been working for some of them for over a year with no interruptions.
