I've had troubled accessing HN from Shenzhen, China recently. Any other HNers in China had similar problems?

Not in China now, but this nice website seems to prove you right:

Interesting site. I entered google.com and it was all OKs. I thought google was blocked in China.

I'm not surprised - HN often ends up with posts or comments which are outspoken against Chinese government policy.

Also, it will probably boost their engineering productivity by 10%.

This varies regionally. I'm commenting from Shanghai. Last time I was in Shenzhen it was blocked.

It's CloudFlare the firewall seems to be blocking sometimes, I am in Shanghai and HN comes and goes at random. Plus I notice the same thing on other CF sites. China is a pain for almost all CDNs
