At the same day in 20 years ago,the Berlin Wall was torn down.Today,another higher invisible “Wall” is still standing in China.  ( tweeted by @icalcifer )

Today is the day that Berlin Wall crashed at 20 years ago. The fall of Berlin Wall is the symbol of democracy freedom. The West takes it as a great victory and the opposite side try to make it less attractive. However the fall of Berlin Wall takes the world into a new direction and will be remember forever.

Where there is a wall, there would be some mice hole on it. So the stories of the cat and the mouses will never stop until the day that wall crashed.

There are tricks  for the mice to dig holes on the Wall, such as VPN, SSH, Proxy and so on. Tor is my favorite trick cause its untraceable and free to use. But unlucky it got a VIP treatment from the Wall and we have to do something to make it work again.

There is a small trick note for myself below. You can take it if you need it too.

Step 1: Write a request letter to bridges@torproject.org via a reliable email service likes Gmail. (It’s especially important if you are behind the Wall) Then we would get a list likes ” bridge 123.123.123.123 ” .

Step 2: Edit the /etc/tor/torrc file as root. To add that list you have got to the “bridge relays” section at the bottom of the file. Save and exit.

Step 3: Restart the Tor and Privoxy(if you need) services by the commands:

sudo /etc/init.d/tor restart

sudo /etc/init.d/privoxy restart
