Facebook unblocking question involving problems uploading pics/watching videos...?

[Jacy A.]

So my parents blocked facebook because they think that it is dangerous. However, i found a way around whatever they did and i now use this site: http://www.unblockbook.net/index.php?e=h...hpc3QuIjt9
Which works wonderfully most of the time, but i cannot watch videos and i cannot upload pics. I've tried everything, and it's so weird because the other day, i tried it out and was able to upload a picture, but then i deleted it and decided to come back to it when i had more time. Then, when i tried it today, it just took forever and finally showed me a blank screen. Ugh.........................so frustrating. Any info/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

A blank screen is better than thanks!

Maybe your parents actually know something you don't? This is evidenced by your reckless and dangerous solution..

A lot of these proxies are hacker pots designed to either steal your information or plant bots on your computer that they can use. The recent facebook and Twitter DDOS attacks the took down their entire networks is a classic example of what people using proxies and getting infected enables. Reckless people like you are actually enabling the hackers to take down your favorite sites.

Even if it’s not a hacker pot it’s probably loaded with advertisements as that’s how the owner is making money. In either case the owner has no incentive to provide fast response or high bandwidth. The owner of the proxy is using you and delivering very little back to you.

At the end of the day you’re just wasting a lot of time that could be spent doing something more productive at best and risking your computer and more at the worst.
