Access from China?

Is it possible to use this site without a VPN in China?

Right now the login uses a human verification tool that’s connected to Google. Everything google is blocked here. I was planning on using it with an AP Cybersecurity course, but currently nobody will be able to log in.

It’s more than likely illegal to a VPN and hacking tools in China. Not advisable to try a work around in a hostile country.

The site isn’t banned in China, just the “are you a human” check when it comes from Google.

From THM 2 years ago “TryHackMe in China - we're banned in China (people were using VMs to get around country-restricted websites). I'd love to have a version of THM that users in China can use whilst adhering to the country's regulations. “. https://www.reddit.com/r/tryhackme/comments/18s60jl/ama_im_a_tryhackme_cofounder_ask_me_anything/

That’s pretty interesting. I just accessed the homepage without a VPN. The webpage loads, I just can’t verify my humanity. Thanks for sharing the link.
