On May 16, 2017, President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko signed a decree on new sanctions against Russia, in connection with which all Internet providers must block access to the largest Russian social networks- and , as well as to Yandex services. In this article, we wrote in detail how to bypass blocking on mobile devices and computers.
How to bypass blocking on a smartphone
by the most in a simple way to bypass blocking on a smartphone is to use VPN services. VPN is a virtual private intermediary network that allows you to access the Internet from a foreign IP address (device ID). Programs that provide VPNs need only be activated once, after which you can use the Internet and applications bypassing any restrictions on the user's location. The following free services demonstrate good speed work - despite the use of servers from other countries, the speed of loading sites practically does not change.VKontakte in Ukraine on Android
Hola is one of the most popular location spoofing apps on the internet. Key Feature This program has the ability to establish a VPN connection for certain applications, and not for the entire network as a whole.
Touch VPN is another popular app for VPN usage. It is notable for a large selection of available servers - you can "sit" from 19 countries, including Russia. The program has a warning function about connecting to an insecure network. Thanks to this, you can always use VPN in public access points without worrying about the confidentiality of the transmitted information.
VKontakte in Ukraine on iPhone / iPad
TunnelBear is one of the most popular VPN services in the world. App Store, which has become famous for its simplicity, as well as a beautiful and understandable design. The app is free, but only provides 500MB of "anonymous internet" per month. If you need unlimited, you will have to pay.
Hola interface (left) and ZenMate (right)
There are a lot of browser extensions, here are just the most popular ones: Hola and ZenMate. In most cases, you must manually select the VPN server in the extensions. To make the speed as fast as possible, you should specify one of the nearby regions.
Hola VPN for browsers:
- Firefox (direct link)
Operation of Opera's built-in VPN feature
Another way to bypass location blocking is to use browsers with a built-in VPN. The most famous browser of this kind is Opera. This web browser has a built-in VPN that can be activated in the settings.
Virtual Private Networks in Tor
Another notorious browser is Tor, which uses a network of anonymous servers. Unlike all of the above methods, this browser is able to provide complete anonymity on the Internet. However, it is unlikely that a simple user will need it.
Alternative methods to bypass blocking
Cameleo anonymizer main page
If the above methods of bypassing the blocking do not suit you, you can use anonymizers. The anonymizer is a site in which you need to enter the address of the required web page (for example, vk.com), after which the anonymizer will download this page to itself, process it and transfer the data to the user on its own behalf. This method is remarkable in that it provides the ability to access blocked sites anonymously without installing additional software (browser, extension or VPN client). The most famous Russian anonymizers are: Cameleo, NoBlockMe and PingWay.
Another way to replace information about your location without using additional programs is to change the DNS server (a computer that stores a database of correspondences between IP addresses and domain names nodes).
To change DNS server on Windows 10, 8.1 or 8, you need to follow these steps:
As is known, January 25, 2016 Roskomnadzor, based on the decision of the Moscow City Court "on the lifelong blocking of RuTracker.ORG on the territory of the Russian Federation," ordered Russian providers to block access to the resource.
Lifetime blocking of Rutracker.org will not lead to the liquidation of the resource. It's just that your providers have received an order to close access to Rutracker for their customers, and under current law they are required to do this.
Since the tracker is used by a huge number of users and many of you are not familiar with the methods of circumventing restrictions, we have prepared an extended series of articles with examples and clear screenshots of how to do it!
And can anyone find out that I visited blocked resources?
Some plugins such as Hola, Zenmate collect data about the sites you visit. And we do not recommend putting them in your browser.
Also, the history of your browser stores information about visited sites.
If you don't want the browser to save them, switch to private mode.
Using Third Party DNS
Your ISP's DNS servers may contain deliberately false domain-to-ip address mappings.
And first of all, when blocking, you need to change the DNS servers from those provided by your provider to public ones, for example, to Google Public dns. If you have access to the router, write the same ip addresses of the DNS servers there: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

If the user loses his phone, he enters the FindMyPhone service and, with a single click of the mouse, blocks his phone completely.
By the way, in our material you can read how to work with iCloud not only on portable devices:
Whoever finds the device cannot simply pick it up and unlock it.

Before using any site, read reviews about it on Google or on thematic forums.
And also it is worth noting that if the service really works, its functions will still be limited:
- No third-party site, except for the official Apple server, can recover the password to the Apple ID of the previous owner;
- Only some offline functions of the phone can be unlocked (listening to music, playing videos, viewing images)
- Get access to use cellular network or the Internet using such services is not possible.
The doulCi service is an effective way to unlock
Of all the sites for unblocking iCloud, it is worth highlighting doulCi.
Its developers are hackers who periodically collect information from the transmission channels of Apple's servers.
Thus, it became possible to restore access to more than 50% of phones. The use of automatic unlocking is carried out only for a fee.
