What is a Tor Snowflake?
About Tor Snowflake
Snowflake is a pluggable transport that proxies traffic through temporary proxies using WebRTC, a peer-to-peer protocol with built-in NAT punching. You can run a proxy by installing the Snowflake browser extension on Firefox or Chrome. In doing so, you will help Tor users circumvent censorship.
How do you use a Snowflake in Tor?
Under the "Bridges" section, locate the option "Choose from Tor Browser's one of built-in bridges" and click on "Select a Built-In Bridge" option. From the menu, select 'Snowflake'.
Is Snowflake safe Tor?
The security concerns for the Snowflake proxy operator are minimal. The Snowflake client will not be able to interact with your computer in any way or observe your network traffic, and you will not be able to see their traffic.
How do I add a Snowflake in Firefox?
Install the Snowflake addon to your browser
If you are running Firefox, you can install our Firefox addon. Chrome users can install our addon from the Google webstore. Once it is installed, you can toggle the Enabled switch to turn it off and on.
