    How to unblock Flickr in the UAE, Iran, Saudi Arabia, China

    It's blocked by many national filters, and anyone attempting to view it will get a message similar to this:

    However, there's actually a very easy fix; simply install Firefox add-on 4286, titled Access Flickr!

    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4286

    Once installed and your browser restarted, just visit flickr.com like normal, and you'll get straight through.

    I wouldn't discount our goverment blocking flickr because it might have porn on it if they manage to ever get their web filter through.
    If man was meant to work he wouldn't have invented robots.

    they'll be too busy filtering sites that tell you how to get around the filter.

    I'd use Tor if the website wasn't blocked here.

    I've had heaps of people say "why not just use a proxy like vtunnel man" and similar responses... perhaps you don't get it. It's all f*cking blocked.

    There are very few easily accessible avenues to take to get around it.
