Google: Three Methods of Using Google as a Proxy to Bypass Blocked Site
Contributed by David Kirk 
Tagged: Google Many jobs and schools (countries?) block access to certain sites. However, it is very difficult for anybody to block access to google. By using google with either of these two methods, you can gain access to blocked sites very easily.
Blocked web site, huh? Need a proxy?
I am not a big fan of chasing free, open proxies all over the place. I use google instead. Here I describe what I believe is an uncommon way for bypassing blocked sites using google.
1:
The first and most common way of using google to bypass blocked sites is just to search for the site and then clicked the “cached” link that appears on google. Easy, simple, and frequently works for static information.
2:
Passing the site through google translator works well as well. Here’s the URL to use:
http://www.google.com/translate?langpair=en|en&u=www.blockedsite.com
(where blockedsite.com is the site that you wish to visit)
This translates the site from english to english and works because the ip address will appear as google instead of you. Here’s a link to tech-recipes passed through the translator as an example. You can actually do this with any langpair. Change en|en in the URL above to spanish by using es|es and it still works.
3:
My unique method that I have not seen described before is to search through google mobile. Google mobile will “convert as you go” very similiar to the translation method above.
Just search for your site with google mobile and click on the link it provides. Here’s is tech-recipes brought up through google mobile search. Once again, this will allow you to bypass any blocks because the IP request comes from google not for you.
Like the translation method above, google will continue to “proxy” as you continue to visit links through the site. The only side effect of this method is that google formats the site for a mobile device.

the first one works but if you want to see a streamed video it just shows an error in the video player.
In youtube for example, you can see everything on the page except for the video.

I had problems with the translation at first too. It says it can’t do english to english translation. I played around with it and selected dutch to english. Even though its not dutch in the first place it worked for me. Give it a try a let me know :)

I agree with you on two things: that the cache method works a charm for static websites and that free proxies can be unreliable. I use Freedur to access popular blocked websites like Facebook and Youtube which are inaccessible in China. So far it’s the only thing that’s reliable for me.

Someone asks why block web sites one reason is for legal reason’s. If a site is blocked at school bring it to the IT dept. attention if you have a good reason why you need to access the site they should listen. Think of all the productive work people could accomplish if they spent the time trying to bypass proxies by actually working!!

Under options then cached
Ibeach77 said on March 22, 2011
in order to find the Cached version of sites is easy. Simply search for the site you are wanting to access then once you have located that link in Google, underneath the description of the site you will see a grey link that says “cached.” Of course, this method is not guaranteed to work all the time.
