The "internet explorer" browser-in-browser on the website somewhat works, but it is connecting to websites from an Alibaba cloud datacenter in China, user-agent claims to be an Apple computer and it is using many different exit ip addresses.

Google, gmail, youtube, reddit, yahoo, archive.org etc don't work because they are blocked in China.

It appears that this orange hnn website does not work in China either.

Some websites are 403 forbidden as they seem to be blocking the exit ip addresses.

If you play with this, it may help the enter URLs including the https:// as it does not seem to always properly handle a website upgrading http to https. It may not update the address bar if you get redirected.
