Many companies route traffic between branch offices to the main office,
each office has a firewall. In the case of web access, it's often a good
idea to not allow branch offices direct access to the net, pushing all
traffic through a VPN tunnel or a leased line, and they browse the web
through the main offices connection (passed back to their location).
So, every office has it's own firewall, but, as in typical settings, the
branch offices have no outbound access from THEIR internet connection.
Again, you've show how little you understand about networking, security,
traffic, and anything else you've tried to say you can get around.
