For the particular tools that I have checked, it appeared to be enumeration of network entry points through the censors running the tool or collecting aggregated network statistics from users, and then blocking found addresses. In certain cases, this layer three blocking and in others through in-line blocking on the application layer. In the latter scenario, the intention seems though to simply block SSL connection for addresses, and nothing more fine grain, e.g. whitelisting/blacklisting. Would be happy to test any tools, maybe FreeGate is next. -- *Collin David Anderson* averysmallbird.com | @cda | Washington, D.C.
