Tor needs 200 WebTunnel Bridges to fight censorship
The Tor Project has urgently appealed to volunteers to help deploy 200 new WebTunnel bridges by the end of 2024. This is necessary to fight against rising government censorship, especially in Russia.
WebTunnels disguise Tor traffic as HTTPS with valid SSL/TLS servers, making detection harder. Tor has 143 bridges but is facing increasing censorship of its tools, hosting providers, and bridges.
Volunteers must have a static IPv4 address, a self-hosted website and a valid SSL/TLS certificate. Additionally, they need at least 1 TB/month bandwidth. Bridges should operate nearly 24/7 for a minimum of a year.
Contributors who establish 5 or more bridges will get a thank-you t-shirt. The campaign starts today, November 28, 2024, and will run until March 10, 2025.
