Didn't work for me.

I think NYUD.net is intended to be more of a distributed cache, than a
country-hiding proxy, I guess it distributed you to a node where nobody
outside the UK had accessed that page ... it's worked a couple of times
for me on 'BBC Future' pages.

Thanks. But I have already seen the site via proxies. I, and you, should not
have to do that to see a resource which we have funded.
As Brian implies, what are they trying to hide from the British? What don't
they get about the "British" part of the British Broadcasting Corporation?
Oh, ****. I forgot. I'm a British taxpaying straight male ...

I think that the BBC's attitude used to be the same for the BBC World
Service, it is not paid for out of licences fees. Until the advent of
DAB radio, no provision was made for daytime listening in the UK, and
reception of the medium wave transmission on 648kHz was purely
fortuitous. And although Radio 4 has, for many years, carried the World
Service during the night, I don't think that this was always the case.

True enough, but if someone puts up a big fence, it's human nature to
peer over it ...

I use both Opera and Chrome.

It was funded by the C&FO

But it's the likes of thee and me (well maybe only the likes of me) who
funds the C & FO.
