I can't access twitter.com. I don't know why.
Is it due to proxy or other things?

here are your possible solutions:
if you can't access the server (website) firstly try to ping it to get response:
ping twitter.com -c4you must get e.g.:
ping twitter.com -c4
PING twitter.com (199.16.156.6) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 199.16.156.6: icmp_seq=1 ttl=246 time=134 ms

Other solutions install tor
sudo apt-get install torThen in Mozilla go to edit/preferences/advanced/network/settings choose manual proxy and enter in the Host tab 127.0.0.1 and port 9050 and press ok. Done.
Or install Tor-Browser bundle:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/tor-browser
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tor-browser 0 You can install wine, and after then download freegate and run it by wine to bypass filtering if any. I recommend you don't install Tor because it doesn't work correctly.
