Can you use Bitcoin and access Bitcointalk freely without using a VPN?

[momore]

China has very good censor, so maybe the government banned bitcoin network. I live in southeast asia, everything is fine here although my government often bans important site, but it's ok, i use vpn to access those sites. I don't have any problem in bitcoin network because my governmont doesn't ban it

Yes, our govt bans many many websites besides bitcoin.

Hello guys, I am very depressed. I live in China mainland, each time when I try to login to Bitcoin client(I use portable Electrum most) I must seek for a proxy or VPN. Without a proxy or vpn, the client can't hardly connect to the network.  Sometimes,  I cannot even access Bitcointalk and Blockchain freely without using a proxy or vpn, and yes, at the moment, I am using a vpn browsing Bitcointalk and starting this topic.
Have you ever travel to China? We get no access to Twitter, Facebook, Gmail and many many many other websites that are hosted abroad.

Slovakia here, I guess EU has nearly the same limitations as USA, which is nearly none xD, and I have no trouble accessing bcttalk from here. Bad luck you were born there bud.

What the hell are you talking about? Slovakian policy is nowhere near that of the U.S.

Is Tor now considered usable with Bitcoin?

I remember there was an issue with being de-anonymised but that was a while ago.

[Patatas]

Yes I can.  ISPs here don't block sites and we can access any sites freely (except sites that can be only accessed within a certain region) without using a vpn

Sometimes I use proxy as well for a faster network connection speed.

Even I can access most of the sites including bitcointalk here in our country , still I am using VPN. Quite much faster than our ISP's. Even the free VPN one here is much faster especially in peak hours. But of course ISP sometimes kick much against VPN on a different day.

Seriously!!!  In which country you live in

I've heard always that the vpn's are much slower than the Isp's Internet.

That is true in some point. VPN speed relys on ISP's speed. Look like my post is misleading you. It just that using VPN gives me more speed than using our normal connection here (although our normal connection here is quite fast ). But I just want to have more speed than the usual one.

[misterycoins]

Yes they blocked mostly free vpns and some popular vpn that are regularly being used in China. But still other premium vpn services working fine in China. This is very important to take a serious VPN provider. Not only for Chinese people which needs to bypass censorship but for all people who wants to protect their privacy.

[juankburke]

i dont know about china but other countries does face problems mostly ... but china is a whole diff story you guys have a huge firewall making it impossible to use internet as everyone said use a good vpn thas your only option i can see

[btcdealer]

yeah there are some sites that are blocked in china you should use another proxy that might work...

The VPNs/Proxies got blocked too? So how can the ppl there access to the outside world?

Yes, I can. But some times I use proxy too for fast speed.

I live in USA and as far as I know the government here doesn't block any sites.

Here its the internet companies that make their sites faster and other sites slower.

Yeah the U.S government does not block sites really. They just confiscate the whole operation.

That is for local servers only. For some sites hosted on the servers abroad, VPN may get you a faster speed.

[Sarthak]

No need to use VPN. Nepal
