Now, unless I can use Tor to cloak my IP address and make it look like I'm not using Tor, I probably can't get into my Google account. Apparently I will be forced to go elsewhere, the library or whatever, to use their Internet and change my settings.
If you don't already have it, install the Tor browser bundle and use it to access Google. If (When really) you get the 'access denied' change the circuit in TBB. You do that by clicking the 'lock' icon next to the URL and selecting 'New circuit for this site.'
You will probably need to do this a few dozen times to eventually get an exit node that big G isn't pissed off at the moment.
How is this different from using tork-trinity? I can create my own circuits, make sure that I am using only US exit servers. (Is MIT considered a *bad* exit, for example?) Also use bridges, etc.
It may be simpler just to go to the library.
Hi Bill,
G just (temporarily) bans any IP that ‘does bad things’ (even libraries). As long as you can easily change the exit node and re-load the page you should be good. I suggested TBB only because it does that with one click of a button.
Tor exit nodes usually ‘do bad things,’ but with enough changes you should be able to get in.
Best, Michael
