How to bypass TikTok blocking in Russia

March 6, 2022 TikTok banned live streaming and uploading new content to users from Russia. In this article, we will look at ways to get around the ban on uploading new content to TikTok of Russian users.

The ban on the publication of new content in one of the largest social networks is a huge blow to the traffic arbitrage industry.

In order to be able to re-upload content to the social network TikTok, it is necessary to exclude any factors that could allow the user’s location to be identified. Below we will look at instructions for bypassing blocking on different platforms.

Browser

The easiest way to get access to posting new content and streaming TikTok online is to use the web version of TikTok right in your browser. To do this, first of all, you need to change your IP address to the IP address of another country using a VPN. In order not to have problems with TikTok anti-fraud protection, it is better to use your own VPN server, rather than mass solutions (in which one ip-address will be used by hundreds of users).

I wrote about how to set up your own VPN server in my Telegram channel: https://t.me/low_digital/110 (Please note that to bypass TikTok blocking, you need to purchase a virtual server hosted outside the Russian Federation, for example, in Switzerland).

After you have configured the VPN server as well as the VPN client on your PC, you need to download a “clean” browser. In order to minimize region detection factors, it is better to use an English browser, and it should be “clean” so that it does not contain TikTok cookies that could remember your region on previous visits to this site. In this case, the most convenient solution would be the Portable version of the Firefox browser: https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable

Connect to the VPN server, launch the Firefox Portable browser, after which you can safely access the site tiktok.com and publish your content.

To conduct live broadcasts, click on the “GO LIVE” button, after which you will receive settings for organizing an RTMP stream of your broadcast. With the help of the address and key of your broadcast, you can organize it both with the help of professional software (for example, OBS) and with the help of a smartphone application.
