Bypass Firewalls by getting websites emailed to you
This trick is only good for public pages and you do need to know the URL if you’re already stuck behind the firewall. But how many URLs of public sites do you know? Probably a few.
- Web2Mail – Either subscribe to a page you want to watch for changes or email www@web2mail.com with the URL in the subject and it will email you the site within 5 minutes
- WebInMail also sends websites to you. Email browse@webinmail.com with the URL in the subject. Easy!
Don’t forget you can get old snapshots with Wayback Machine or Google Cache. However, these snapshots are probably too out of date for your daily needs.
This is a very clever idea. Just be careful that you don’t inadvertently deliver some type of zero-day exploit to your inbox. Some sites are blocked for more than just words and visual content.
A very good point.
