Free VPN service (May 2012)
Due to the increase of internet censorship and extensive visitor tracking worldwide. Internet censorship in countries like China, Iran and UAE has expanded to the extent that many world’s top websites and services including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube etc. have been completely blocked. These services and websites in internet censored countries cannot be accessed until or unless you are using a Proxy or VPN. In China, it is not hard to find a VPN service provider selling VPN on Taobao.com. Taobao is the nearest thing to a Chinese eBay. It is the largest online shopping marketplace for consumers in China. In this free VPN service list, we will introduce two of the Chinese VPN service websites.
