hey guys,
2 days before when I came back from college and tried to open my facebook, i was surprised to see that "IT WAS BLOCKED". I couldn't believe this so I checked whether my "https" is on or not.Now, I was mush more surprised that our firewall makers after reading many books did a great job.They even blocked "https".WHOOOAAA....(**Earlier we used to think that our firewall makers are Mechanical or Civil engineers haha).
Now,when i tried to "google" the reasons , google was blocked too.Since google was blocked so gmail and youtube are out of our discussion.
You guys know that its really difficult to live without facebook and gmail.And if a Computer Engineer is provided internet where he is restricted to use "GOOGLE!", he/she might commit suicide and will be referred as "Martyr" =D .(**I want to file an amendment in the definition of "Martyr" in Indian jurisdiction haha)
Well guys, I am sharing some ways by which you can atleast make "google" "facebook", "gmail" and "blogspot" functional.(**But i don't guarentee for their smoothness!!)

Error type: HSTS failure
Subject: www.google.com
About-
HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) is a web security policy mechanism whereby a web server declares that complying user agents (such as a web browser) are to interact with it using only secure HTTPS connections (i.e. HTTP layered over TLS/SSL[1]). HSTS is an IETF standards track protocol and is specified in RFC 6797.
The HSTS Policy[2] is communicated by the server to the user agent via a HTTP response header field named "Strict-Transport-Security". HSTS Policy specifies a period of time during which the user agent shall access the server in only secure fashion.
more details- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security
Remedies-
Its inbuilt in chrome but its can be handled in firefox web browser
add plugin- Config Description 1.0
it Firefox store doesn't work then download this plugin via chrome.
But the question arises that how can we access "google.com" if its showing "HSTS failure"
So Guys, here is the way..
This can be done be done by entering ip address of "www.google.com".
To get the ip adress-- Open CMD in Windows.
type " ping www.google.com "
the one in the square brackets is the ip address
[ 173.194.36.52 ] (** for your convenience this is www.google.com ip address ) :))
....................
Type in search and download "Config description add on mozilla firefox"
now install the "Config description" addon to the firefox web browser.
now open firefox and type in URL < about:config >
a page appears->
right-click > New Integer (nametest.currentTimeOffsetSeconds and value e.g. 11491200 or greater) in about:config
now delete your history and cache and enjoy google'ing and gmail'ing :))
you might get "security exception" page on firefox..
goto--> "i understand te risks" --> get certificate --> confirm security exception
...................>>>>>>....................>>>>>>................................>>>>....................................
Method -2
This method is quite smple--
"facebook works better with this browser"
After reading about the error message"HSTS failure"
I came to know that HSTS is default in the latest and default web browsers(E.g. Chrome, Mozilla Firefox(**but i have shared to handle with firefox.Thank You! firefox for being open source (Y) =D).
So, i used some less renowned web browsers like Avant Web Browser.
To download Avant Web Browser
Goto wwww.filehippo.com (Its showing Hsts failure then open cmd--> type < ping www.filehippo.com >
-->copy the ip address given in square brackets [] --> type in URL bar. )
in filehippo.com--> goto browsers section--> download avant web brower and install it
and enjoy everything(**While using facebook, an applet arises after certain time intervals asking to proceed, Always Click yes).
Note- For Miet'ians, use roll no's of (** ECE :P:P) third year.They have least protocols attached to them when it comes to surfing.Avoid using roll numbers of first year.
P.S. If you are facing some problem in using these methods then let me know.I'll share more snapshots.
If you are facing problem of "access denied" in "Youtube.com" then don't bother, i'll be back with snap shots of ways of accessing it.Hint:Its accessible for linux users using "computer imaging and cloning technique".
This blog has been written in great hurry! lol .So, if you are facing any inconvenience you can ping me!.
If you need complete description of this post then message me on G+ .
thanks for reading my post!!
