kerbalspaceprogram.com just made it to the list of blocked websites of my work's internet filter.    content:games

So, no more browsing during my lunch break.  But, hey, you made it to the big league!

If 1of6's employer is smart, they will have blocked access to VPN networks as well. I suppose one could use a search engine cache, but that isn't very interactive.

Still, it's a cause for celebration to see them on a major filter's games list.

You should find a new job! Preferentially one with better wage and without internet filter!

Same happened at my school...they don't know about Ultrasurf VPN... search up 'ultra surf desktop' and download from the freelink keeps my Steam games from being blocked.

A few years ago i was both a teacher and the "guy who blocks the internet access" in a computer school. 

Ultrasurf is not difficult to block if firewall + proxy is configured correctly.
At that time, it was very simple to block ultrasurf - and almost all equivalent softwares - using iptables + ipset + squid. 

I simply set iptables to drop all packet to the internet, allowing web access only throught a non-transparent proxy (squid 3), with ssl interception (so it can filter ssl connections - i have installed a root certificate in all school computers).

 IPset + php was used in 
 a custom web application used by teachers to allow temporarially firewall bypasses, so, the firewall doesn't interfere on class.

No student was able to bypass that kind of blocking - I don't know if it works today because i changed jobs and never worked with internet filter again.

They've been emailing you for some time now, trying to figure out what you did, but for some reason, their emails clients won't connect to the server..... hmmm....

And boom goes anyone who needs anything a smidge better than webmail.  Harsh.

Same happened at my work.  It's why I've been posting so much less, and am back at page 3, never catching up.  I miss foruming while eating lunch.
