Snowflake Volunteer

Become a Snowflake Volunteer

• Help users in censored regions access the open Internet by becoming a proxy volunteer.

• By hosting a Snowflake proxy, you provide a bridge for individuals living under restrictive digital regimes to connect to the Tor network.

What is Snowflake?

• Snowflake is a pluggable transport designed to circumvent Internet censorship.

• It enables users to reach the Tor network by routing their traffic through a network of volunteer proxies located in regions where the Internet is unrestricted.

+ It functions similarly to a VPN, masking traffic to bypass blocks.

+ It disguises Internet activity as standard WebRTC-based video or voice calls.

+ Because the traffic looks like an ordinary call, censors find it significantly harder to detect or block your connection.

How it Works

Snowflake leverages WebRTC technology, which is the industry standard for real-time communication in videoconferencing applications.

• When a user in a censored region requests a connection, your browser acts as a ephemeral bridge.

• Tor traffic is encapsulated within these WebRTC calls, rendering it virtually indistinguishable from regular peer-to-peer audio or video streams.

• To volunteer, simply keep a Snowflake extension or website tab open.

Safety and Security

Volunteering is safe and designed to protect your identity.

• You do not need to worry about the content accessed by users; you are simply an entry point.

• Your IP address is not the one tied to the destination website.

• The user's visible browsing IP address will be that of the final Tor exit node, not your personal IP.

Important Note

• Operating a Snowflake proxy does not bypass censorship on your own device.

• If your goal is to circumvent censorship for yourself, you must download the Tor Browser or use Orbot and select Snowflake within your application settings.

FAQ

Q: How does hosting a Snowflake proxy help people in censored regions?

A: When you host a Snowflake proxy, your web browser acts as a bridge for a user living under censorship. By routing their traffic through your connection, you allow them to bypass government-imposed blocks, effectively granting them access to the open, unrestricted internet that they would otherwise be unable to reach.

Q: Is it dangerous to volunteer as a Snowflake proxy?

A: Volunteering to run a Snowflake proxy is designed to be a safe and privacy-preserving experience. You are essentially acting as a neutral entry point, and the system is engineered so that you do not see or handle the actual traffic content of the person using your proxy.

Q: Will my personal IP address be linked to the websites that the user visits?

A: No, your IP address is not tied to the destination websites being visited by the user. The internet traffic is routed through the Tor network, and the IP address that the website sees as the source of the traffic is always the address of the final Tor exit node, not your own personal IP.
