Access YouTube.com from Indonesia

If you’re an Indonesian and have recently read any news regarding to YouTube.com Blocking Cases by DNS to 12.127.17.83 - You must also know that Indonesian Government decide not to block YouTube.com only, but also several others file sharing and social networking website(s); such as rapidshare and multiply! And if you’re an Indonesian that is using Indonesian ISP(s) local services, then you might notice this blocking matter(s) from yesterday afternoon (At least that is what one of my YM friend is telling me).

Can we bypass that blocking system? Can we still watching some YouTube’s content in Indonesia, etc? Yes sure! It’s not a big deal at all - We can still watch, access and post any comment(s) on YouTube.com! Interested to know?! Let’s discuss here.

There are several ways to do it so - But this article will only talk about 2 different way(s) that you guys can use in order to fight/bypass this kind of blocking system. First of all, you can easily access some Anonymous Surfer like HideMyAss and/or do some translation from some online translator like Google Translate and BabelFish Translator. That is the easiest way to break this blocking system!

But there is another trick(s) that is written by Zoiz before and much more powerful compared to that one; which require you to change your secondary DNS to 12.127.17.83 (That is a Singtel-based DNS and got nothing to do with Indonesia’s ISP(s)).

How to do it - Open your Network Setting. Right click and select property. In Internet Protocol list menu, click configure. And type in the DNS I provided into the secondary DNS. Now you can access YouTube.com!
