Software:TriangleBoy

From HandWiki
Short description: Proxying tool


TriangleBoy is a proxying tool designed to allow users to get around firewalls and censorship, and anonymously visit web sites. The tool was created by Stephen Hsu, founder of SafeWeb,[1] which later stopped support and distribution of the tool. The software was developed using seed money from the CIA,[1][2] and TriangleBoy was supported in part by the Voice of America as a way for Chinese readers to be able to reach the VoA website while bypassing China's Great Firewall.
