Internet censorship is becoming a more serious problem every day: numerous websites are becoming obscured, websites made unreachable by authorities and network control laws. Furthermore, there are issues such as browsing privacy and access to websites active only in some countries, including some videos on Youtube.
To overcome these problems, we have seen several methods, all collected together on the web page on the best proxies and programs to navigate blocked and obscured sites .
Among these were mentioned Tor, Ultrasurf and also Freegate, a program with mixed fortunes, whose last update, however, made it the number one on the list .
While most VPN applications to simulate surfing anonymously or from another country affect the browsing speed or prevent the correct display of some sites (such as flash sites), Freegate provides a fast connection to the sites, as if you were sailing normally .
Freegate is therefore the total anti-censorship that can be used as an automatic proxy software that makes all the sites in the world accessible without limitations via a fake IP address generated by the program in order to deceive the server into believing that it is being accessed. country.
Everything works automatically and without blocking, as is the case with other programs, plugins or browser extensions.
Freegate is also free and very easy to use.
When you start the application for the first time, a proxy window appears.
It allows you to create lists of websites to be set up for connection through Freegate.
There are basically three ways to manage lists: You can choose to pass all websites through the Freegate proxy, you can mark some addresses to navigate with Freegate and others that must never be passed through the proxy.
The main interface opens after having configured all the initial settings and is made up of four tabs: Server, Status, Tunnel and Settings .
The Server tab allows you to see, in real time, the stability of the connection to the proxy servers provided by Freegate.
The Status Tab shows a button to turn Freegate on or off quickly .
Under Tunnel it is possible to choose between two types of configuration and also to set a mode with proxy or one without proxy.
If Proxy mode is selected, a proxy is automatically set in Internet Explorer in the advanced connection options (inside the browser options) which has the address 127.0.0.1, port 8580 .
The same proxy also takes effect when navigating with Google Chrome while if you want to use Firefox, you have to set it manually in the advanced network options.
In the settings there are some options to be activated to run Freegate automatically, to set it or not to set the proxy on Internet Explorer and not to open the browser automatically.
In the other settings, however, you can disable some plugins such as Java or ActiveX controls to ensure absolute anonymity.
Freegate is a portable, installation-free application that works on both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.
It is currently the best program, for ease and effectiveness, to browse blocked or obscured websites and to be anonymous on the internet.
