Unblock Youku

This project contains three-fold functionalities.

1. A Google Chrome extension for smoothly surfing on many websites blocking visitors outside mainland China.

   You can find this extension on Chrome Web Store at http://bit.ly/unblock-youku

2. A local proxy server based on the non-blockcing Node.js for bypassing the mainland restriction for other browsers such as Firefox and Safari (but not guaranteed).

   1. Run the proxy script locally: node server.js

   2. Set (only) the HTTP proxy of your browser to 127.0.0.1:8080

   For more instructions, please see these examples.

3. A backend server to support the redirection mode of the Chrome extension.
