And there you go again, delusional. Censorship has nothing to do with company policy that blocks internet access for non-business needs.
You support unethical behavior that can get people fired, you show them how to do it and one of these times someone is going to get fired and come after you for it.
A VPN won't make it out of a properly secured network unless it's been explicitly permitted - and most are not.
Which is complete and utter bull crap - it's very easy to spot a vpn or ssl connection that doesn't belong.
Of courser, I don't run MY proxy anymore, because my firewall software was crashing under the heavy load of running a Tor entry proxy. Kerio and Tiny both become unstable and crash after a few hours under the heavy load. The server had to be re-booted every few hours to keep both Windows, and the software firewall program, from crashing.
While, on some Internet radio forums, I will point people to BananaVPN, or other commercial proxy servics, if they need a program, I no longr run the proxy on my machine

Well, I use my own VPN tunnel when I go to certain countries, such as China (and soon Japan and South Korea) that censor/monitor the net. There is no POSSIBLE way the authorities in those countries can know what I am up to.
Just like after the cyclone in Mynmar earlier this year. I went there to report from there, and simply used my VPN tunnel, so the ruling Military Junta could not POSSIBLY find out what I am doing. All the Junta would see is a bunch of encrypted garbage, and they would never know I was reporting illegally from that country (like most of the reporters there were). I did one edition of my talk show there, using a VPN tunnel to my Shoutcast server, which then relayed to the Live 365 network. If the Junta DID try to monitor the connection, all they would have gotten was a bunch of encrypted GARBAGE.
It just so happens there is a high-class tourist resort about
45 minutes drive away from where much of the devastation was, and this beach resort somehow managed to avoid serious damage, so I would able to bluff my way in as a tourist, and get a 7-day tourist permit at the airport. As long as I did not overstay that permit, I did not have to worry. I simply used the in-room internet connection to VPN into my Shoutcast server and get on the air.
I'm having an awful time trying to understand how all this crap is related to firewalls. This newsgroup is comp.security. firewalls.

Well, I see nothing wrong with listening to Christmas music, at work, as long as you are getting your work done, and within a few minutes of flipping the switch to another all holday oldies weekend, the traffic shot up through the roof, with with almost all of it coming from office networks in the United States. I flipped the switch just now after the morning show here, aimed at Australian audiences. Within only a few minutes of activating the Christmas playlist, people were connecting from office networks all over the place.
