Web Proxies
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Web proxies provide alternate URLs to access censored resources.
|
|
These can be accessed through a normal web browser.
|
|
They use frequently changing URLs to evade censorship.
|
|
Some functionality on more complex websites may not work fully.
|
|
The URLs will have a limited lifetime as, once discovered, they can be blocked by censors.
|
|
|
|
This assumption of a limited lifetime is built-in to the system, allowing for automated block detection to trigger the
|
|
deployment of new URLs, and for the :doc:`distribution lists <lists>` to allow applications and end-users to discover
|
|
new URLs.

Smart Proxies

|
|
|
Where a simple proxy leads to a broken user experience, it may be necessary to use a smart proxy to mitigate the
|
|
brokenness.
