How to Use Google as a Proxy server

The internet! Being free of any law, and where people are free to do whatever they want.

This has made most governments all over the world in search for ways to prevent piracy and content protection online.

I hope you know that the government of a country hold the power to order ISPs to block websites that they feel are a threat to the society.

The next level of blocking occurs on public networks such as schools, colleges, hotels etc.

Schools and colleges block downloading sites as well as social media networks.

There are many other public internet connections that block certain websites due to one reason or the other.

But, the internet is a world built by the geeks and there is hardly anything that can be termed as impossible.

Hence it is actually possible to bypass blocks to access websites on the internet by using proxy server sites.

Today in this post, am going to tell you how you can access blocked internet content via Google and its services by using Google as proxy server.

How To Use Google As Proxy Server To Access Blocked Content. 

There are two ways to use Google as a proxy server. By using Google weblight or by using Google Translate.

While your ISP or public network host will think you are using a Google service, your screen will actually show the original content of the blocked website.

Let us begin with the Guide to using Google as a Proxy Server to access Blocked Content.

Using Google Weblight.

Google weblight is a Data saving technique used by chrome web browser. It routes your web page through Google’s own servers where it is optimised for low data and quick loading.

This modifies your URL and hence blocking programs can not recognise the content.

This method to use Google as the proxy server is very quick and effective.

Just follow the simple steps given below to use Google as a Proxy server and access blocked content using google weblight.

 Enter the URL of the blocked content in the format given below.

“http://googleweblight.com/?lite_url=http://*URL-HERE*” 

Replace URL HERE with your URL and visit!

Using Google Translate.

This method involves the use of Google’s website translator service to bypass blocks and access blocked content by using Google as a proxy server.

Google has the power to open any website and translate its content to any of the supported language.

This can be used to show the entire website on the screen via Google translate. Here’s how to do so.

Go to https://translate.google.com and in the text box, paste the URL that you want to visit.

Choose any language other than the language the web page is in.

Click the “Original” button in the top right corner to view the original web page.
