No more dubious than the person who asked how to get around his/her companies firewall proxy in the first place. As admins we can only block what we first are told from management then of course those areas that fall under our base of knowledge (security, et. al.). Hopefully with some sort of checks and balances to ensure fairness. As for China's policies? That is an argument either for foriegn state policy or one of personal conciense. As an outsider, its a tough call to make on either side.

As a private corporation these rules should be listed in some sort of fair use policy including penalties, if any, if broken. I have seen these policies to be either non-existant or simply arbitrary in nature. Since we have no real idea what the site we are discussing really is, we have to err on the side of caution and assume its disallowed for a reason. Of course the poster could always plead the case for the need to access the site with the powers that be as well. I didn't see that in original posting, either.
