4 Ways to access blocked websites

Introduction

We have often seen that some of the websites in our schools or colleges doesn’t get open.No wonder if you have arrived on this website by searching for the same.
General meaning of word ‘proxy’.

Its actually an agent/substitute or anybody acting at place of any other.

Proxy websites allows you to bypass your current ISP’s IP and connect to targeted website with a different IP ; thus hiding your actual origin from detectable.

For example- When your college or school’s firewall doesn’t allow you to open any website< say youtube>. In that case, you request a proxy server to bring that web page from youtube.Now, your firewall thinks that you are dealing with a server other than youtube and allows you to make a connection.

Hence you have successfully managed to bypass a firewall. Proxy servers simply act as intermediate between your system and actual server that you are accessing.
