Well 2 days ago the VPN on my phone stopped working which is a bit of a bastard to say the least and now it has migrated to to my computer. Over the last few weeks China has been strengthening the Great Firewall that surrounds this country and they have been blocking many more sites. I use Whatsapp to keep in touch with a few folk and now that has also stopped. It tells me that there are messages but the messages will not come through.

Now I’m not a big lover of Facebook and of course this is one of the main sites that has been targeted for years, but what I find frustrating is having to use Bing as a search engine, how sad is that. Anything to do with Google is off limits. When doing a secure transaction online it can also be problematic as it will often time out.

So for the next 2 months or so my freedom will be curtailed and then I shall be outside the Great Firewall once more and then I will be free to roam wherever I want.
