How to access Facebook in China

It's been 2 weeks since I arrived to China.
When I left Boston I had no idea that in China you can not access Facebook. Nobody bothered to tell me that and I didn't think about asking. When I landed and got to my hotel, the first thing I tried to do is connect to Facebook. After 30 minutes of fails I sent an email to my best friend Harry, and he told me how to access Facebook in China. He said I should look for a Proxy.
As soon as I knew what to look for, the fun started.
I tried almost every site that I met on the way, until I found what I was looking for at http://www.securitales.com that simply worked on the first try.

When I had some problems with the connection and contacted technical support they were extremely helpful and knew exactly how to solve my problem in less then 30 minutes.
I was so thankful, I promised them I will spread the word and here it is :-)

One of the things that bothered me when I was looking for a way to access access Facebook here is China is security. I'm not a security expert but I know that everything that starts with https is better than something that starts with http.

I was looking for a solution that will be secure, not too expensive (my limit was less than $10/month) and still won't require me to install anything on my computer. I was looking on the net and got confused by all those "full of ads" sites that just took me to other "full of ads" sites....
And then I found http://www.securitales.com that worked on the first try.
The thing I liked the most about Securitales is that they let you access Facebook from China without installing anything. They also have a free trial that worked BEFORE I signed up and they also support Youtube, Twitter and all the rest.

When I had a connection problem I contacted their support and they solved the problem immediately.
I was so thankful I promised them I will spread the word about their great service.
So here it is :-)

    At first I really thought it was a miracle that Facebook could work in China, but then I saw that it only gave me 10 MINUTES. 10 minutes aint enough for me to check ALL my notifs from the past

    You may try a proxy software named "Free Gate" or "自由门" in Chinese.
    It's free and esay to use. Quite popular in China.

    Even if it the trial zlasts 10mins, it was more tha enough to check messages between flights...twice! I think that if you don't use up all the time youget a free 'refill'-I used about 5 mins and when I logged in later the timer started again from 10mins. Please correct if I am wrong

    10 minute trial only, but it works perfectly! Really good if you just want to make sure you are not missing anything super important on Facebook, or if you're desperate to watch a video on YouTube.

    I've never tried securitales - I'm not sure if proxies work anymore. You can check out http://unblockfacebookinchina.info/access-facebook-in-china for updates. It's my blog, and I generally am pretty good about keeping up on what works and what doesn't to access Facebook in China

    I have tried several services and none of them really worked.
    They all show Facebook but the chat is not working or the games are not working.
    This is the first service that I tried that REALLY WORKED.
    Thank you for sharing it, this is a life saver.
    I'm in Beijing for 3 more months, now it won't be boring any more !

    www.securitykiss.com download the free vpn client install start up and connect to secure foreign server . no more hassles . free verision gives you 300mb every 24 hours and sometimes you may need need to select a different server . but for using just facebook or twitter or google 300 is more mb is more than enough. it wont work with torrents tho .

    The fact that you need to use special tools to access Facebook from China is absurd.
    In any case, I do not think that this situation will last for long.
    I wonder if youtube and twitter are in the same problem,

    This post helped me a lot, thank you so much. I came 2 China last week and since then I could not access Facebook. That was not fun at all at all... No I'm back on Facebook. Great tip that helped me a lot.
