The blocking bypass was burned. Is there an analogue of a “slaughterhouse”, and why is it needed?

As you understand, we will talk about a fairly popular resource, namely the Skotobaza website. You will learn what this site is for, how to access it and much more.

Skotobaza is a website, with which you can view private photos graphies any user who has ever appeared on the Internet. That is, if the user posted or sent to someone private photos, whether the photos are intimate or of a different nature, they will definitely end up in the cattle station and you will be able to see them.

This site contains more than 184,311,000 photos different users, so the likelihood that you will see private photos of the user you are interested in is very high. If there is no photo, then the user is probably clean. The cattle depot has great amount photo from VKontakte and its database is constantly updated with each new photo posted on the VK website.

So far, the cattle depot is the largest site with which you can search for private photos; there are not many competitors to it. But the cattle depot has one small problem, this site is blocked by Roskomnadzor, which we all dislike, so the method will be described below bypass blocking for cattle farm, because a large number of people are wondering how to enter the cattle station.

Unfortunately, the cattle depot does not have a mirror, and why would it be, if the method that I will describe below will help you use all the functions of the site despite the blocking.

So, in order to bypass the blocking of the cattle base, after the address skotobaza.org we add another address, namely .prx.zazor.org, this domain will help us get to the site that interests us. In the end you should succeed Domain name skotobaza.org.prx.zazor.org, which is where we will visit the site with private photos and look for incriminating evidence.

Analogs of a cattle depot.

As I said, analogues at the cattle depot there are, but they are not so popular and do not have the same large database photographs as our resource. And yet, I will describe one rather popular analogue. This is the site spalili.org, it also has similar principle work, but its photo base is slightly smaller, because this service appeared later than the cattle station itself. The site has a more pleasant design and functionality.

But the site Spalili.org has exactly the same problem as the cattle depot; it is blocked by Roskomnadzor, so in order to bypass the blocking of spalili.org we need to access the site through the domain spalili.me.prx.zazor.org.

By the way, the site spalili.me has its own top, that is, you can see the users who slept the most with photos on VKontakte (VK), as well as the photos themselves. In the top, you can customize your search criteria, select only girls or only guys, and select age.

Conclusion: This site suits us as best analogue livestock farms with an extensive database of users and photos, as well as convenient and advanced functionality.

So, let's summarize my post!

• In order to get to the livestock depot website, or more accurately bypass its blocking, just go to the domain skotobaza.org.prx.zazor.org and we will have access to all the functions of the site that are available without blocking.
• Skotobaza has similar sites, its sites are similar, we reviewed one of them, to get to it go to spalili.me.prx.zazor.org. But it’s not a fact that it’s blocked in your region; I personally have it blocked.

There are service sites that store information about users social networks. For example, in Skotobaza (to put it mildly, a strange name for a resource) you can find private photos and see hidden friends. At the time of blocking, the service’s robots had collected more than 107 million user photos. The site is now closed by order of Roskomnadzor, but it is possible to get into its extensive database.

What is Skotobaza?

Collecting other people's photos posted on social networks in private (hidden) albums is not a new tradition. It all started about 15 years ago, when you could find unsuccessful pictures of social media users on LiveJournal. networks that were posted for fun. When the Animal Farm website was created, many saw an analogy. But over time, the resource began to position itself as a service that stores private photos of users of the VKontakte social network. If the photo is truly private (with a lock), then it cannot be in the database. But many photos are posted for a limited group of users, for example, only for classmates or girlfriends. But, as you know, if two people know about a secret, it is already public information.

What can you find in it?

In Skotobaz they are looking for photos that are not in public access. For example, the user could save them to separate album only for a group of friends. In a word, a service with a strange name will allow you to lift the veils of your friends’ secrets, interesting people or ill-wishers. Thanks to the Animal Farm, you can learn a little more about these people than they allow. But not all users of the VK social network are in this archive. If Account new, it is unlikely that information about the person who created it can be found on the site.

Is it possible to delete a photo from the Animal Farm?

When the service was not yet blocked, you could secure your page. Not for free, of course. By paying about 500 rubles, you could delete photos that ended up in the Animal Depot and be sure that they would not end up there again. Now there is no service or paid feature removal, but users still have great interest in the database. Many people are curious to know how friends, acquaintances, and loved ones live.

Are there any analogues to Skotobaza?

Sites that collect information are sometimes confidential, about the privacy of users, are constantly blocked. After the ban on the Animal Farm new resource was not created. And it would be strange if such a site appeared as if by magic: a huge amount of content (videos, photographs) is not so easy to save.

Bypassing the blocking of the Animal Farm

To bypass the blocking of a resource, not just the Animal Farm, you just need to log in under a different IP address, that is, hide your real location. This can be done in different ways. There are several options that allow you to access pages of web resources anonymously. For example, there are special browser plugins that hide real IP addresses. This is the simplest solution, and we wrote about it in a separate article.

Now we will look at another simple option that has appeared recently. Developers new version Opera is built into VPN browser(virtual private network) - a technology that allows you not to advertise your actions, and therefore bypass all kinds of blocking. And all you need to do for your anonymity is to enable the function in your browser and go to the blocked site. So here's how to do it.

How to enable VPN in Opera

Download one of the browser versions that appeared before the beginning of autumn 2016. Open settings by clicking on Opera and selecting the desired item from the drop-down list. Or use the combination Ctrl+F12. Find the “Security” tab, and in it the “VPN” item. Check the box and you will see the Virtual Private Network icon on top panel. That's it, we have enabled the privacy function.

Now open the cattle depot website.

Fast one-time method

You can try this too:

Example of using the Stockyard

It's simple. Indicate your VK user ID and receive information (friends, photos).

Where else can you look for people and photos?

If you were unable to “get into” the site’s database, try finding the user’s private content on other networks. For example, one album with a photo in VK can be hidden, but in Odnoklassniki or Facebook it can be publicly accessed. If you know a person's last name, find their other pages on .

You can also find a person from a photograph. You may find more about him on another site. open information. To start an image search, do the following:

The most simple ways open blocked sites

To bookmarks

On March 13, the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation brought together the websites of several online publications and Alexei Navalny's blog, once again making Runet users think that in the near future blocking will become a routine for them.

TJournal tried the most popular means of bypassing blocking and found among them versions “for dummies” - in which everything works right away, without settings.

Turbo modes of browsers and Google Translate

There are widely known methods for opening blocked sites that do not require installation. special applications and any settings. Many of them are not as effective as we would like.

For example, using the “turbo mode” in Opera browser Without any problems, we managed to open Alexei Navalny’s blog, which was blocked by LiveJournal, but we were unable to access the site, access to which was limited by the provider.

At the same time, the traffic compression mode in mobile browsers Chrome and Opera showed themselves with best side. Blocked pages loaded quickly and without any distortion in appearance.

And the option of passing the site through Google translator turned out to be ineffective. Neither Navalny’s blog nor the Rutor.org tracker opened.

Web services

In terms of convenience, web services that offer opening blocked sites through proxy servers do not differ much from each other. Most often, they only require you to copy the link into a line on your home page and make one click. At the same time they display desired page with their own header and work very slowly.

One of the best among them is ProxFree. It is easy to use and does not add its own advertising. Analogs include Proxyweb and Hide My Ass.

Smartphone applications

The most obvious and most simple solution For iPhone users and the iPad turned out to be the Onion browser, running through the " onion routing» Tor (The Onion Router), the traffic in which is almost impossible to track. The only thing required from the user is $1 for the universal version for all Apple platforms.

In practice, Onion is an outwardly unremarkable browser that allows you to open any blocked sites. It is suitable as a closed tool that does not affect the operation of the rest of the system. For Android there is an analogue called Orweb.

If you want to bypass blocking without using third party browser, then you should try TunnelBear. This service is available on iOS, Android, PC and Mac and uses VPN technology.

"Start" it up mobile platforms noticeably more difficult than Onion. On iOS, it first asks you to register, confirm email, install a profile with VPN settings, enable its profile in iOS options and only after that start working.

But, unlike Onion, TunnelBear allows you to pretend to be a user from another country and use the services of, say, the Netflix service.

The main disadvantage of TunnelBear is the price. IN free version The application only has 500 megabytes of traffic available per month, and annual unlimited traffic will cost 979 rubles (and this is only the price for iOS devices). You can't call him friendly at all. On the other hand, it has versions for iOS, Android, PC and Mac: the last two are very easy to use.

Browser plugins

The most convenient and effective means A plugin for Mozilla and Chrome called friGate happens to be in this area. The authors of the extension specifically note that there is no loss of speed when using it. It really works out of the box and opens pages blocked by any in a known way, notifying the user of entering a “forbidden territory” just by changing the icon on the control panel.

The speed of friGate is ensured by the fact that it opens blocked sites from its own pre-compiled list. However, this is unlikely to become a problem for anyone: it is replenished as quickly as possible.

An offer from competitors called hola! proved to be noticeably worse. Firstly, you need to manually select a VPN desired country. Secondly, the plugin often turns the layout of blocked pages into a mess and looks untidy in itself. However, as the creators note, it is largely intended for viewing media content: to speed up loading streaming video it uses other users' computers with the plugin installed.

Iron

The “iron” way to bypass blocking is the Onion Pi portable proxy server, made based on Raspberry computer Pi. It passes all user traffic through Tor system and distributes Wi-Fi. The device will cost about $100, but it is not so easy to find in Russia. You can also buy it for bitcoins.

Recently, while exploring the latest news on the Internet, I came across a couple of very interesting sites: this skotobaza.org And Leboard.ru. It is exactly what these sites are that I want to talk about in this review.

What is Skotobaza.org

Livestock depot is a service for viewing hidden photos VC. The site skotobaza.org will be of great interest to many. By entering the page id from VKontakte into the search field or simply copying the entire address, you can see photos that are hidden from viewing by a wide range of users. In addition, you can enter the user's last name and first name and also see his photo. A friend search function is available in the Animal Farm. By logging into skotobaza.org, you will see that this Skotobaza website is designed in a minimalist style, there are no unnecessary details or additional services.

Here you can find not only hidden, but also deleted photos, because they all remain in the database forever. It is known that the Skotobaza website is just developing, so not all users of the popular social network Vkontakte are here.

If you want to prank a friend and make a collage of photos that he thinks are inaccessible to anyone, then with the help of Skotobase you will succeed. Or, for example, you started dating a kind of “good girl”. By entering her page, you can find out if she is hiding anything from you. However, it should be noted that the site is included in single register Russia, that is, blocked. Many people are looking for a way to bypass the Skotobase blocking, and some are looking for analogues and similar sites.

Figuring out how to work on the site is very simple. But if you suddenly have a question about what kind of Skotobaza site this is, watch this YouTube video:

What is Leboard.ru

Leboard.ru– this is a bulletin board site and even more! At first glance, Leboard.ru is an ordinary bulletin board. Since Leboard.ru quite often electronic mailboxes notifications arrive, and some users are afraid to go to it, thinking that they can “catch” a virus there. In general, he does not inspire confidence in many people. And in vain. Since they don’t know what kind of website Leboard.ru is and what it can be used for.

The Leboard.ru website is similar to a social network, only it is not customary to communicate or brag about where you have been. Photos of things that need to be sold are posted here. Communication between the seller and potential buyer is carried out in the internal chat. From social networks, the platform took the opportunity to add friends and watch their advertisements.

The Skotobaza.org website appeared in March 2014 and initially its servers were located in Ireland. The essence of the service boiled down to the following: robots collected photographs posted in the general or limited access on the VKontakte network, copied them and placed them in the database. From there they could be easily obtained by searching by VKontakte user ID number. The only way to prevent photos from leaking is to set them to "Only Me Visible" status. If the images were placed in albums to which at least one other person had access, then the robots read it, and it inevitably ended up in the site’s database.

What is skotobaza and why is it needed at all?

Monetization of the skotobaza website was not based on advertisers, like most startups, but on “donations.” If the user wanted his photos to be permanently deleted from the Animal Farm, he had to contribute 450 rubles “to help the project.” After this, all information on the account was deleted from the Animal Farm. Presumably forever. In essence, it was a kind of extortion, and it was immediately obvious that the site would have problems. Of course, they didn't have to wait long.

Already in 2015, Roskomnadzor became seriously interested in the service, citing its dissatisfaction with the law on the protection of personal data of citizens Russian Federation. The threat of blocking was fully realized on May 30, 2015, and the site became officially unavailable in Russia. For some time it still remained operational and, using the usual mechanisms for bypassing blocking that affect other prohibited resources on the network, it was possible to gain access to it.

Mirrors and analogues of Skotobase

Besides the main link, for a while there was a mirror site with a shortened address: sko.to. However, along with the fall of the Animal Farm itself, it also went dark. On this moment simple check on downforeveryoneorjustme.com it gives the following: It’s not just you! skotobaza.org looks down from here. That is, the site is truly offline for everyone.

The site spalili.com was active for some time, but after a while it also closed. At the moment, services such as vkfaces.com and udb.im operate on the network, but they clearly do not live up to their predecessor and reveal only publicly available information, which can be easily viewed on VKontakte itself. Therefore, the effectiveness of such resources is virtually reduced to zero.

In case the service resumes operation or a functioning analogue appears, it is worth looking at ways to bypass the blocking of the Stockyard. They will clearly come in handy in the future to easily access other resources of interest.

Ways to bypass blocking of sites banned in Russia

As a rule, bypassing blocking of sites, including Stockyards, carried out by masking the IP address. That is, in essence, the computer creates the appearance that the user is accessing the site from another country. Such masking is performed using several well-known algorithms.

The first is anonymizers. These are proxy and web servers that hide the user's network address and replace it with their own. Usually these are either sites like Cameleo or Hideme. They redirect the user's request, opening the necessary network addresses in a separate browser frame. There is no need to configure or install anything. You can simply enter the address of interest in the appropriate line and press Enter.

The problem is that this method significantly reduces security. In addition, anonymizers have the bad property of constantly closing themselves. There are very, very few truly long-term and stable services of this type among the free ones.

If money is not a problem, then there are also several stable working paid anonymizers that charge users subscription fee once a year and offer expanded capabilities in return.

The second way to bypass blocking is to install a browser plugin. Most of these tools have cross-browser support, that is, they work with Chrome, Opera, Firefox, and even Yandex.Browser. Of the most popular plugins, four can be noted:

• anonymousx,
• Browsec,
• friGate
• zenmate.

Plugins, like anonymizers, are divided into free and paid. Typically, the second type offers additional quantity servers and greater speed.

Third way - using a VPN server. VPN stands for Virtual Private Network, that is, virtual private network. There are several proven and stable services. Among them are the following:

The fourth option is overlay networks. The most famous tool in this category is the TOR browser. Represents a specialized assembly Firefox browser with NoScript, Torbutton and HTTPS Everywhere plugins already installed out of the box. It uses cascade proxying as its main tool. That is, data packets are transmitted not through one proxy server, but through at least three. This algorithm makes the process of tracking data transmission extremely labor-intensive and allows the user to effectively hide his location. Among other things, it makes it possible to visit blocked sites, including the cattle depot org.

Bypassing the blocking of the Animal Farm - Legal or not?

It is worth considering that the State Duma adopted a law that prohibits providers from providing users with access to resources that allow them to bypass blocking. The law will come into force on November 1, 2017.
