Newgrounds Censorship

Posted by R-U-D-E - October 8th, 2022


I have been inactive in the past two years due to censorship

Why?


The government blocked Newgrounds under the excuse of "Healthy internet". So in the past two years, I've been using VPN to access this site, the problem is that the connection is so slow that any attempts of uploading anything will always fail (music, animation)


So there's really not much way to post my work, and I finally became inactive for two years.

I only published my work on youtube in that period


Today, I found another way to go around that restriction while not sacrificing too much internet speed, and that is DNS (stupid me). Which allows me to upload without failing at all.


I've uploaded several of my works in bulk, you can go check my page

So now, I've become active again (if anybody actually cares)

That fucking blows dude. Glad you found a work around. What country are you in, if you dont mind me asking?

Indonesia, you can see the tags.
And you can learn more about the censorship by watching two of rong rong's videos

Didn't Indonesia recently block Steam as well, at least briefly?
I speak from a bit of a privileged position, living in the United States, but internet censorship, especially on the order of national "firewalls," just seems like a half-baked ploy that doesn't actually benefit the country in the long run.

yes, they also blocked steam and paypal
reasons? idk. But gambling sites are still allowed apparently

It's because of the recently enforced regulation that I found a proper workaround, the DNS
The minister needs to step down because he has no experience in IT at all

Down with the system!

@Zoe agreed. Glad OP found a workaround

Well that's a surprise, I guess that counts as 2 countries blocking Newgrounds, one is Indonesia and the other is India.

@Tyler @R-U-D-E tbh, yeah. Indonesia has blocked newgrounds for a long time. But i kinda found out about DNS last year thanks to my cousin, and i completely forgot to check if i have access here after enabling DNS tbh. Good for you tho, you can continue making games for others to enjoy

That sucks but I'm happy to hear that you found a way around it.
