aiccu from China?

I put aiccu on boss-laptop, but it didn't work when he went to China. (It worked at home), nor did regular ipv4.
So the it-folks at the company he visited "changed something" and he could do ipv4.
Will aiccu get through the great firewall of China, or is it regarded suspect and probably subversive?
Is there an issue with installing aiccu on a laptop which is sometimes cabled and sometimes on wireless (Lan, not mobile), in selecting which ipv4-connection to use?
BTW, I intend to reinstall the laptop before it is allowed onto our net. Last time he came back with apps in chinese-only where I didn't know which button was "uninstall" and which was "send all data to website in china"...

AICCU is a program that configures IPv6 tunnels of three types, depending on the tunnel type and thus the protocol that that uses it might be or might not be friendly to a local firewall.
Circumventing network policy is not a target of the service that SixXS provides though, you might want to look at Tor and other similar methods for those purposes.

Many networks in APNIC (Asia and Pacific) are IPv6 only. aiccu depends on ipv4 to tunnel home. It *would* be nice to use aiccu as a "poor man's" Mobile IPv6. If only it would tunnel using IPv6 when IPv4 is unavailable!
I have an immediate need for giving a laptop going to Japan (where many networks are Ipv6 only) a permanent IPv6 address. It seems rather cumbersome to run Mobile Ip6 on top of aiccu - just in case you travel to an IPv6 only network.
Note that IPv6 only networks can access the IP4 net via NAT64 gateways, and DNS servers that translate A records to AAAA records for an IP on the NAT64 gateway (last 4 bytes of IP6 address are IP4 address).
