Bypassing the Great Firewall of China

The Great Firewall of China, also known as the Golden Shield (Chinese: 金盾; pinyin: jīndùn), is installed on the international Internet gateway of mainland China and censors international communications over the Internet. People in mainland China cannot visit censored website.
In China, web sites that talk about sex, Tibet or Democracy are blocked. Funny is that almost all the Chinese web site, even like Sina.com have too many content related to sex topic or images.
I have been searching on the net to find out how to bypass the great firewall of China. There are some information I got from my searching. Listed below hope it can help to those people who need it.
In the above article, it gives some ideas on how to access Blocked Web Sites in China.
This article suggests workarounds to help you unblock access to restricted web sites at universities, school and offices.
Web sites hosted by yahoo are also blocked in China. I have a few of clients whose web site hosted by yahoo are blocked in China, still can not find a way to unblock it. Another hosting company ipowerweb.com, some web sites hosted by them also are blocked in China, but not all.
So, if you are doing business in China, or want to register a domain name and host a web site to be mainly targeted China market, be sure your hosted web site are unblocked in China.
