Here we go again - pulling a week of duty at JB Andrews and they've placed FR on the naughty list. Argh.

It dawned on me what Joint Base Andrews is. Little slow because of recovering from surgery number 34. Anesthesia kinda dulls the brain at times.

See if they block the cell phone data 3G/4G signal.

If not, access the unfettered web via a smart phone or a hotspot.

Also.....there is still dial up service available for a few dollars a month. Being mostly text....FR loads pretty quick.

I would assume that the Obama regime blocks all conservative websites on regime computers.

I imagine that ‘Dear Leader’ is getting ready for another year of fun on the links.

Obama’s Golf Course Has Been Spared from the Shutdown
Posted on October 7, 2013

Obama keeps his favorites open.

One of Obama’s preferred golf courses, the course on Andrews Airforce Base remains open during the government shutdown. The grocery stores on the base, where troops get discounted groceries for their families are, however, closed. They will shop “at local stores that cost about 30 percent more, Lieutenant General Raymond Mason, the service’s deputy chief of staff for logistics, said yesterday at a House hearing.”

Answer: Get an iPad with cellular. Works great for me and The company can not track where you surf.

Do they block access to HMA VPN or other competing product? if not you should have considerable success there.

It’s a bad idea to go straight to FR on any public or work network since it is cleartext. I use ssh to a server, then lynx from there. There are a couple free shell accounts on my quick search, but I have no idea whether any of them really work.

My company had about everything blocked.
All my gun chat sites wear labled “weapons”
All political forums including this one was labled “Political Activism”
No social media
No news
No comedy/fun/games

If it didn’t have to do with company business, it was blocked. Fortunately our servers are pretty easy to overide like the explaination upthread.

I get through restrictions at work, by going through Google Translate. Our firewall doesn't block traffic via this translator. So I put in www.freerepublic.com and set it to translate from Spanish to English. Since this place is mostly text, it comes up pretty good. I do the same thing to get to sports sites, but the pictures don't come up, just text. A lot of proxies, do not restrict web traffic through translators, so it's a possible back door out to the web.
