Comment on Are you running a Tor Relay?
Sunny@slrpnk.net 5 months agoWow this is neat! Wasn’t aware of this. Is this the same as running a full dedicated relay?
Have already installed and activated it, and will do so on more of my devices.

Snowflake acts as an entry point. A lot of official TOR entry nodes are blacklisted in some contries. Since Snowflake can run basically behind any IP anywhere where a browser is, it is hard to block them. In that way users in suppressed countries can still access the TOR network through Snowflake but the official entry nodes.

Ah I see, good to know. I don’t think my country blocks them, but I’ll try to do some research. It seems like TOR has a nice overview over good and bad ISPs too, if one were to go the route of hosting through a company: community.torproject.org/relay/…/good-bad-isps/
