# Anti-censorship Solution for Russia on PAC-script
|
||
|
||
## Censorship in Russia
|
||
|
||
Censorship in Russia plagues the Freedoms of
|
||
[Information](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_information) and [Speech](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_speech),
|
||
slowly building analogue of [China Golden Shield](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Shield_Project).
|
||
|
||
For good or bad, it blocksm
|
||
[Main Kampf](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mein_Kampf) and
|
||
[critics of Putin](http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/03/13/us-russia-internet-idUSBREA2C21L20140313).
|
||
|
||
Looking at how Russian government [distorts TV](https://therussianreader.wordpress.com/2015/11/22/russian-truckers-strike-dagestan/) and blocks Internet, I decided to write an Anti-censorship extension for Chomium before they strike first.
|
||
|
||
I believe the freedom of information is a virtue and important __information mustn't be blocked based on political or other subjective views__.
|
||
|
||
Your freedom ends when it starts to confine the freedom of others.
|
||
|
||
## Technical Titbits
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
if (Is_subdomain_of( host, blocked_hosts ))
|
||
return 'use proxy';
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You have to make `Is_subdomain_of` very fast.
|
||
This check is executed on each request. You should watch memeory consumption too.
|
||
|
||
The naive solution is to keep array of blocked ips and check if the host resolves to one of the ips.
|
||
You may do it with `indexOf`, binary search, etc.
|
||
The shortcoming of every ip solution is that __some providers resolve blocked hosts to wrong ips__, so we eventually need list of hosts.
|
||
|
||
I have tested different solutions, and depicted [results](./benchmark/Output.txt) in the following chart:
|
||
|
||
![Host Lookup Chart: Time-Memory, Hits-Misses](./chart/host-lookup-chart.png)
|
||
|
||
* __IPs indexOf__ – Blocked IP is search by `indexOf`
|
||
* __IPs binary__ – Blocked IP is search by binary search. For some reason miss time slightly increased.
|
||
* __IPs switch__ – Simply `switch(Blocked_IP) { case1: ... caseN: return true }`. Works even better than binary search. Magic.
|
||
* __Hosts switch__ – Radix trie built on `switch`. Comparable to __IPs switch__.

||
## Antizapret Proxy
|
||
|
||
I've decided to use [Antizapret](http://antizapret.prostovpn.org) proxy servers, which proxy ips from the [the register](https://github.com/zapret-info/z-i) only.
