Staying ahead of censors in 2025: What we've learned from fighting censorship in Iran and Russia | Tor Project
In 2025, Tor faced some of the toughest censorship yet. From Iran’s wartime internet blackouts to Russia’s rapidly evolving blocking tactics. Tor’s anti-censorship team sprung into action and strengthened Snowflake, deployed the new Conjure pluggable transport, and made WebTunnel more wide available. Thanks to real-time monitoring, community feedback, and faster bridge distribution, Tor keeps people connected when it matters most. Want to help? You can support our mission by running a Snowflake proxy or hosting a WebTunnel bridge.
