I am at a hotel and these fuckers are blocking outbound connections to port 22. They are also blocking access to any websites mentioning proxy or vpn, seriously fuck them. I managed to get a VNC connection open to one of my servers and I am now trying to set up a VPN tunnel to my servers so I can fucking do my work. >:-(

Why is everyone using vpn when a simple proxy is more than enough?

- change ssh port to your srv
- ssh srv -p 122 -l bytecode -D 7788
- set system proxy server to localhost:7788
- go

@netikras well, because they are already interfering with the traffic I no longer trust their network, if they just blocked some ports I would be ok with it, but analyzing the traffic and blocking only requests for certain regexed domains is shady as fuck

@bytecode ssh traffic is encrypted

Next time just hack the network they use for VOD. There's either an extra WiFi or a network cable going to the TV. If it's cable, 95/100 times it's just plug&play, no security. For WiFi you usually need to crack the password but that's a breeze because even if their screens are up to date I've never seen VOD network security upgraded over WEP era.

@cprn they did not really have anything like that, they had a few channels delivered via coaxial cable... and among them muxed some security camera feeds :D you could literally watch someone go for a swim in the pool or follow someone to their room via the camera feeds

@bytecode Change the channel to watch thy neighbour... that I haven't seen yet. :D
