How to Bypass Blocked Website without VPN
Hi, thanks to Rizki Perdana at Quora (https://qr.ae/ps78EV). I just found something interesting this morning. So here we go.
1. You have to determine a web to bypassed, i.e. Reddit (in Indonesia it is blocked).
2. Then, search the ip address by nslookup, but if you use the terminal or cmd, it couldn’t be found because it has blocked by ISP. So, you can use the online tools like https://www.nslookup.io/domains/reddit.com/webservers/.
3. As you can see, there are a few IPs, then choose one. In this case use 151.101.65.140.
4a. If you use linux or a mac, just add these lines:
151.101.65.140 reddit.com
151.101.65.140 www.reddit.comat the end of your ‘/etc/hosts’ file.
You can use terminal and sudo nano to do it. Then, you can open it in your browser normally.
4b. What if I use Windows? A similar file is located in C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts. Run a notepad with ‘Run as Administrator’ command, open the file, then add the lines.
I assume that reddit.com will always use 151.101.65.140 as its IP address. If it doesn’t work, then you should change it with the working one.
The same techniques can be applied to unblock other sites as well. Just google the IP address of the blocked site, then you can add it in the same style as described before.
Good luck!
