How to use "Circumvention" in context?
When we think about circumvention, we might picture someone sneaking around a firewall to access a restricted website. However, circumvention can also refer to any activity or technique used to evade normal restrictions or processes. Circumvention can take many different forms, from using a software glitch to bypass a security measure, to hacking into a system to install a modified version of software.
Circumvention is often used to gain access to information that is otherwise censored or unavailable. For example, in China, people use circumvention tools to access blocked websites and news sources.
