🚨 We're still in need of more #snowflake extensions to help keep Iranians connected during this critical time.
If you're able, please consider running a Tor Snowflake proxy. This simple and safe action can make a significant difference in ensuring Iranians stay online. #KeepItOn
To get started, visit: https://snowflake.torproject.org
Not a node, but a proxy. Entry node’s IPs in Tor are publicly known, so they are easy to censor. With Snowflake you create a proxy (bridge) between a censored user and an entry node, and since your IP is not listed as a node, you help the user bypass the censorship.
In theory, nope. But if the user is doing something bad, a prosecutor could argue you helped them to do so. I don’t know about any case like this involving Snowflake, and I am not a lawyer. You could be a target if you were to host material, which is not the case with Snowflake.
In case it helps, I’ve been running the extension with no trouble that I’m aware of for a few years.
