There is also another way to block sites through a widget in your browser. I'll show you with an example Google Chrome.

We go to the browser settings.

We enter Extensions, we find Site block, open it Options. Very simple settings for this application open. In line Add page We enter the site that we want to block. Once added, it will appear in the list below.

We check again, try to log in, for example, to VKontakte. We see a ban on entry. Unlike the previous method, there is also a cool notification written here.

How to unblock a site?

Now I’ll tell you how to bypass these methods. A website has been blocked at your work. But do you really want to go to it? There is a way, you don’t need to go through hosts files or find out the password for the Site block application. Just use special services that display a specific site through your website. For example, cameleo.ru. Open it and enter the site you need in the line.

After clicking GO We see a full-fledged website on VKontakte, although the computer is blocked from it.

If this service does not work, here is a list of similar ones:

cameleo.ru
daidostup.ru
hideme.ru
www.474.cc
www.anonymization.net
www.guardster.com
