How can I watch YouTube videos that are unblocked?

How do you open YouTube if it is blocked?

(and other methods)

As some of you might know, the Russian media has been blocked for almost a year now. They have been in the process of implementing a new filtering technology, which is supposed to be much more sophisticated than the old blocklist. I've seen a few people using some software that claims to filter content based on certain tags. I never tested it myself, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't do anything, besides showing you what the content is blocked and then giving you some weird error message. So, you would need to try to find a website that supports embedding the video.

I'm not going to write a detailed article about how to watch videos, as I already did that. In short, you need to do one of the following: get VPN and download the software to a separate computer. It's very easy to do and if you are using the mobile version, I recommend downloading the iOS/Android app, as downloading a browser extension can be a bit risky. Then, connect to a VPN provider. There are some VPN providers that support the mobile version, too. However, if you have enough money, I recommend buying a new laptop or desktop. You will have a safe internet connection, but you will also have to deal with the expense. And, if you live in Russia, I suggest you use Tor (as we had to do here). It's the safest option. Make a copy of the data and leave the country. Don't forget to use the VPN!

My personal suggestion is the second one, because it's the best way to get around the censorship. However, there are still some ways to get around the block. For example, you could use something like Opera Mini, and it will work without any problems. But, then, you wouldn't get access to any content, as everything would be loaded on a CDN.

Or, you could use some kind of browser extension. This works best with Chrome, but I think it will work with other browsers, too. You just need to find a compatible browser extension. When I checked on Twitter, I saw a few people have gotten through the block by using a Firefox plugin. You can also use a Windows Phone app, which supposedly also has a filter.

How can I watch YouTube unblocked at school?

The easiest way to play YouTube on your PC is to download a browser plugin, called the Video DownloadHelper.

This allows you to download videos from YouTube directly to your computer. By default, this plugin downloads all YouTube videos, which could prove problematic if you use a lot of bandwidth. You can find it for free on YouTube, so there's nothing to download.

However, there is a way to use a Google Chrome extension called "YouTube Unblocked" to get around the video blocking at school. You'll need to disable most of the features in Chrome. This doesn't mean the school blocks them too -- they're just disabled to help you navigate the web.

For example, history will allow you to open the page you just typed into another tab. Bookmarks are a list of pages you've used and saved. If you enable Auto-complete, it helps your keyboard by displaying a list of the pages you've gone to over time.

When you download the extension, you'll need to enter your school's IP address. Then you'll be able to access YouTube at school.

The truth is that most cybercriminals are still targeting the general public. However, even some kids are using Tor or other similar sites online, so you can't stop them. Instead, it's up to you as a parent to know what your child's online habits are.

How can I get more secure? There are two ways to stay safe online. One is to install the browser extension, "https everywhere," to make all of your online banking and e-commerce websites require HTTPS connections.
