Core 77 blocked in China

looking at this thread from Beijing. Try core77.discourse.group

Not blocked in Mainland. I am posting from Fuzhou, China

not blocked too,I am in wuhu Anhui,as a student in college

I am back at my China factory today. www.core77,com did not work but core77.discourse.group did :slight_smile:

Thanks for the suggestion.

Also glad to see others can get on.

that’s false alarm! China is a open country, now!

mistake…



Go to the link for the full article.

:smiley: China in mainland can enter this web too.

i do not think it is blocked since i can log on everyday.

but internet service sucks in china, too slow and too unstable

I tried again just now, and the fact can proved all——it’s not blocked.

why govement block this site???i’m in shanghai and i can get to any site i want to.maybe there is some other problems in ur factory. :bulb:

Posting from factory in Zhuhai, China.

i think you have made a mistake.i can log on not only at collge but at home.

After plenty of PAIN. I have found that the issue is NOT key word blocking, but ip blocking and this has to do with the different hosting providors as well as who you acess the internet with in china.

Often if your server you host your site with is one of those budget internet service providers, that host many many websites, China often blocks the entire ip address range. For example GO Daddy servers are totally blocked from china.

Often such internet providers cannot gurantee that all their hosting customers are not running websites with objectional content (porn, anti-gov etc…) so china bans the entire ip address range.

Check with your service providor if they are accessable from china, asia or indonesia. you will be surprised with the answers.

Maybe there are some problems in your mainland factory’s net.I am at Dongguan now,I can entry the website not only www.core77.com but also core77.discourse.group.Only the speed is slow.

you know…it happens. And i can visit blogspot even.

a satire isnt it.

I’m in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province.

Nothing wrong with getting to Core77 from the factory or at home.

Wikipedia has been blocked again though.
