As the Chinese government began to block VPN services, many of the originally feasible circumvention solutions on the market have been rendered impossible, not to mention those that can be used to circumvent VPNs from abroad. They are almost dead. Recently, when I was looking for a new VPN service, I discovered this free “Blue Whale VPN”. In the actual test, not only was it no problem to connect to China, the speed was also quite good. It was not seriously slowed down, and I could watch a movie smoothly. This is eye-catching. In addition, according to the replies from netizens, it seems that it is possible to jump over the wall from China to abroad, but the speed may be slower at night. I will also give you a quick introduction below.
Introduction to Blue Whale VPN, a free app that can bypass China’s firewall and enter/exit China
Blue Whale VPN is currently only available for Android. The interface design is very simple. If you want to circumvent the Chinese wall, you can directly click on the power symbol above and it will automatically find the fastest server. If you want to switch to China, you need to click “Server” below:
There are three modes. Mode A and Mode B are basically the same. The point of returning to China is to jump over the wall to China:
Because it is a free app, ads will pop up when switching modes and connecting to VPN:
After clicking to connect, this message will pop up. Click OK to connect normally:
I would also like to remind you that the advantage of a free VPN is that it costs nothing, but there is no guarantee as to whether it is safe or trustworthy, so it is recommended that you make your own decisions. In addition, if you need to make payments or log in with your account while surfing the Internet, it is best to disconnect the VPN first. (If you want to circumvent the Chinese wall to go abroad, or want to remove regional content restrictions such as Netflix, and want to find a safe paid VPN,ExpressVPN、NordVPN all good)
After pressing Connect Now, an advertisement will also pop up:
I am currently in Japan, so the IP location detected is Japan:
The picture below shows the use of smart connection, allowing it to find the most suitable server and finally connect to the United States:
Querying the IP location does indeed change to the United States:
The speed part can be said to be very surprising to me. On the left is the speed test result without VPN, downloading 36Mbps and uploading 3.06Mbps. After VPN to the United States (it says Linode on the lower left), the speed becomes faster, downloading 46.6Mbps and uploading 3.13. Of course, this is completely impossible, but in my actual test, the speed of browsing the web is indeed the same as without VPN, and it does not mean that it takes a long time to read:
Next, we changed to test China and connected to the Qingdao server:
The IP location did indeed go to China:
The speed test is a bit slower, but still acceptable, with downloads of 22.9Mbps and uploads of 2.24Mbps:
Before VPN, this Youku video was unavailable and could only be played in mainland China:
After VPN it becomes normal! However, Youku now has a VPN detection mechanism. If it jumps out of detection, you can keep trying to go back to the previous step, and it will disappear after a few times:
There are many choices of foreign servers available:
One last thing to note is that this VPN seems to pop up a server maintenance message every time it is closed after connecting to it. I am not sure if it is a bug or just my mobile phone.
However, you can use it again after a while. Those who can’t wait can also delete and reinstall it. I have tested this method and it can be solved. It is a bit troublesome.
There is also a WhaleBlue VPN service on the Internet, developed by a Hong Kong team, the name is reversed so this one is not theirs, the developer is different.
