Internet block
« on: June 25, 2012, 05:00:46 pm »
I would like to find a way to bypass the internet block at McDonald's.

The wi-fi is blocking some site and I would like to be able to get access. p2p is also blocked by Mc Donald's WI-FI.

So if you got anything that can bypass it I would appreciated.

Thanks.

I don't know that you can, unless you go through a proxy page. I know when the new DR who game came out in the UK, I couldn't order it here in the states, so I went through a proxy , Bought the game, and was able to download it.

Now if MD has proxies blocked, then I have no idea.

PS. Be careful using those P2P places. they are really shifty, installing crap on your pc. That being said, some games like WOW or D3 you almost have to go through their P2P in order to download it at a reasonable rate.

It is their connection they set the terms use it by those terms or not at all.  Bypassing the terms falls under anti hacking laws.

I don't think using a proxie is hacking, but then I'm not up in Canada either, it may be different. Heck I have used a proxy to view US government websites, because I refuse to give them permission to track my PC, via my IP.

Typical terms of use forbid bypassing such blocks.  Bypassing them against the terms means you are at that point legally a computer intruder and subject to anti hacking laws.  Not just in Canada either.  I read of a case in the U.S. where a Catholic priest was threatened with such charges for using a Libraries wireless on the property but outside when they only allowed it inside the Library, legally speaking he was a computer intruder and subject to the anti hacking laws. 

When you agree to the terms of use you are morally and legally bound to them.
