ProXPN Makes a Stand on Country Browsing Restrictions
(PRWEB) August 22, 2013 -- According to information obtained from Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_in_Saudi_Arabia, The Saudi government directs all international internet traffic through a proxy farm located in King Abdulaziz city of science and technology where the content filter is implemented there based on software by secure computing.
The report goes on to add that the restrictions have been in place since October 2006 as the country’s Communications and Information Technology Commission (CITC) is said to have been handling the DNS structure and filtering in Saudi, and is responsible for regulating the internet and for hosting a firewall which blocks access to thousands of websites.
According to the report in 2011, the Saudi government went on to introduce new internet rules and regulations that require all online newspapers and bloggers to obtain a special license from the country’s Ministry of Culture and Information.
ProXPN wants browsers to know that with the establishment of its VPN technology service, it has given internet users who are constrained by such restrictions, the freedom to browse the internet freely as all data shared within the ProXPN VPN server is encrypted and facilitates a private internet subset exclusive to the user, masking users’ online identities and concealing their locations. With this, people are reassured that their online activity is privy to only themselves and no-one else.
