Snowflake is a Firefox extension designed to help users in censored countries bypass internet restrictions. By installing and enabling the extension, users can contribute to a network that allows censored individuals to access the internet freely. The interface is straightforward; once the snowflake icon turns green, it indicates that a censored user has successfully connected through your extension. This allows for a seamless browsing experience without revealing your own IP address, as the visible IP will match the Tor exit node instead.

The extension is integrated within popular apps such as the Tor Browser on Desktop and Android, Onion Browser on iOS, and Orbot on both Android and iOS. Users in heavily censored areas can activate Snowflake directly through these applications without needing a separate setup. Snowflake aims to provide an effective circumvention tool for those facing internet censorship, ensuring privacy and security while browsing.
