Ultrasurf is a proxy client, which is a program designed to allow end users to circumvent gateway security devices like web filters and secure web gateways in order to surf the Internet without restrictions.Ultrasurf was developed by an organization called Ultrareach, which was founded by a group of Chinese political dissidents. Ultrareach continues to actively maintain and update Ultrasurf. They designed Ultrasurf specifically to allow Chinese citizens to circumvent the Chinese government’s efforts to restrict Internet use in China.
The Chinese government has constructed a large and formidable Internet filtering infrastructure in order to prevent Chinese citizens from accessing sites that it believes represent an ideological threat to the Chinese Communist Party. This filtering system is widely known as the “Golden Shield” or the “Great Firewall of China”. Many large US-based technology companies have been complicit in its construction, as a contingency of doing business in China. It is a formidable adversary, likely one of the most sophisticated Internet filtering systems in the world.
