China is known for its booming economy and aggressive internet censorship at the same time. Thanks to the world’s most advanced internet censorship system; Golden Shield Project (also known as the Great Firewall of China), most of the most important and most visited websites in the world are blocked there, including all social services from Google (search engine, maps, documents, email, Picasa, etc.) networks (Facebook , Twitter, Instagram, etc.) and other websites like Yahoo, Wikipedia, Sound Cloud. The number of blocked websites in China is said to have reached 2,000 and is increasing.
The role of the Great Firewall in China is not limited to just blocking websites. It should prevent any attempt to circumvent its censorship systems. GFW is blocking Tor nodes, so it is not a reliable way to access blocked websites in China. It also detects VPN connections and therefore blocks them. While there are dozens of VPN service providers in the market, few will actually work in China.
Introducing the Best VPN for China … As explained above, for the VPN to work in China it doesn’t need to be tracked by GFW. B.VPN was one of the few VPN services that used OpenVPN over SSH. A tunnel through which the VPN connection is transmitted. It acted as an additional layer of encryption that hides the VPN connection and makes it almost impossible to differentiate between GFW.
But GFW is constantly updated; Bypassing GFW is a tricky game, and what works today may not work tomorrow. That is why b.VPN has developed its own user-defined SMOKE protocol.
