A Houston (TX, USA) public library? Could be next to impossible, as well as excellent cause for revocation of your library card
Oh no! Loss of the Houston library card! My passport to knowledge!!!
criminal prosecution if caught.
Well, the idea would be not to get caught. I'm thinking basically of just adding one of those $40 Tor nubbins at the end of a USB cable and then tucking the nubbin under the carpet with a sign saying, "DO NOT TOUCH". If it lasts a month then it might be money well spent, particularly if Al Qaeda successfully nukes DC.
Needless to say, I haven't tried. The best you could do from Houston libraries would be a proxy accessed via HTTPS. At one time you could telnet, but that has long since passed.
Damn. They blocked Telnet? They might as well just block TCP/IP. Do they do this by blocking the likely ports or by merely de-balling the protocol stack somehow? I assume Tor is smart enough to try various open ports....
