If you run into any trouble while setting up your bridge, check out our help page and our new Forum. Note that an obfs4 bridge needs both an open OR and an open obfs4 port. We have guides for several Linux distributions, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and docker. To set up an obfs4 bridge, check out our newly revised installation instructions.



We therefore need a constant trickle of new bridges that aren't blocked anywhere yet. It's not enough to have many bridges: eventually, all of them could find themselves in block lists. Unfortunately, these numbers have been decreasing since the beginning of this year. We currently have approximately 1,200 bridges, 900 of which support the obfs4 obfuscation protocol. Thanks to our community of bridge operators, users in China, Belarus, Iran, and Kazakhstan can connect to the Tor network and access the free and open Internet. When the Tor network is blocked, users can get a bridge to circumvent censorship. DT Intro: We like Tor and are happy to support their appeal Run a Tor Bridge campaignīridges are private Tor relays that serve as stepping stones into the network.
