The purpose of this website is to be a watchdog and keep track of which and how many or how many times sites are censored. Help to keep the censorship transparent. Each blocked website will automatically be added to the great firewall on the homepage.
We’ve opened a website in China and route your url request on greatfirewallofchina.org through to our server in China. The server in China opens the url and the result is send back. Our testing is only based on one server on one location in China. We have different backup servers in different locations in China might one go down.
Other locations and other servers may give you different access to the various websites.

Yet strangely the forums themselves are not. . .

I checked the main website, and it says SD.net is blocked. It's one of those things that may/may not be due to the Greatfirewall itself.

SD.net blocked?
How the fuck did I post to SD.net from China? Can't be true.

The BBS appears to be accessible, the main site is blocked. However, they can only check blockage by trying to contact the site from the Chinese server and if there are any technical snags along the way it'll give a false positive.
