How to watch youku videos from outside China


 To watch videos at these websites in China, you can change your default IP address to a Chinese one.

Web browser: Firefox

1. Download Firefox Add-on: Mason

Mason: This extension can simplify the rule to just specify the URI and Content type and can enable/disable each rule separately. What's more, it can customize the web pages by user scripts.
