Google Proxy

I know that this has been in the news for some days but some of you probably have not heard about it, christmas is stress, you know. You can use the google translate feature to visit webpages that are blocked in your country. For example germans are not allowed to visit stormfrontdotorg or rottendotcom and could use this proxy to visit this sites.

The technique is simple, use the following url:

http://www.google.com/translate?langpair=en|en&u=www.yoursiteinhere.com

Change yoursiteinhere.com to the site you would like to visit and it will display. It does not completly hide your ip, so if you are banned you won´t be able to visit this site.
