There are more and more Tor users in China via the meme spreading of blogopshere. Comparing to other proxy tools, Tor is more stable in connection based on it’s distributed architecture. Also it’s ralatedly secure because of anonymous tunnel design.

When some of my friends travel to China, I always suggest them to install Tor to access oversea’s web sites. Unlike some politics-oriented proxy tools, Tor is more content-neutral, thus can be used by diversified users. Also from my friends in Vietnam, Tor also works to break the censorship by gov there. They are happy to share the tool in their circle after my introduction.

I hope this tool can be widely accepted as soon as possible before GFW system aware of it’s importance freeing the Internet access in China.

    I’ve just tried the tool, but it took too much time(more than one minutes to open Google video’s homepage) to open a page, I don’t know whether it was a normal case, or it has been banned by the gfw.
