Psiphon May Knock Down The Great Firewall Of China.

From Canwest News Service:

The Ottawa man who led the team that recently busted “GhostNet,” an international network of cyber espionage, has launched an attack on “the Great Firewall of China.”

Rafal Rohozinski, chief executive of Psiphon Inc. and lead investigator in the discovery of GhostNet’s cyber spy servers – most of them based in China – launched a service on Friday that allows people in China and other nations with government censorship of the Internet to get around the firewalls.

The service called Psiphon is not the first to try to crash through Internet censorship in countries such as China, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Egypt, but it is the first to require no downloads by the user.

More significantly, it’s the first to work on mobile browsers, such as those on cellphones.
