Snowflake for Chrome

Description from store

Cupcake empowers you to assist censored internet users all over the world by turning your web browser into a pathway to the Tor network. Cupcake currently supports creating Snowflake connections. Learn more here: https://snowflake.torproject.org

Important Note: if you are being censored, Cupcake cannot help you on its own. Please install the full Tor Browser Bundle.

When the censor has blocked direct access to the Tor network for a user, you can help. Installing Cupcake makes your browser into a flash proxy -- a temporary Tor bridge. After connecting with the censored user, your bridge allows communication between the user and the Tor relay, successfully circumventing the censor. Congratulations! You are a champion of internet freedom around the world!

Don't worry about your IP address being blamed for the user's requests. The source of traffic will look like the IP address of a Tor exit relay, not yours. This protects both you and the censored individual.

--------------------

If you are unfamiliar with Tor, visit https://torproject.org to learn more. In short, Tor is a free service that protects privacy online. It allows users to avoid network surveillance, which threatens their privacy and freedom.

User 2021-02-12: You're essentially helping to circumvent censorship and spread freedom effortlessly whenever your browser is open and online simply by having Cupcake installed and activated. Please join the cause and encourage your friends and family to add it to their browsers as well. This add-on is recommended by Defcon speaker, Roger Dingledine (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZB8ODpw_om8&t=482s). Snowflake is another great extension to help serve as a proxy. Just make sure you don't disable WebRTC so these work! :)

Gisle Vanem 2015-07-26: How can I attract more people to my IP to use Cupcake/FlashProxy? It would be nice too if there was a counter of users. I've not seen any users of my Cupcake so far (2 days).

Jeroen Baert 2015-04-12: Great and easy way to help the TOR network out. Needs some UI work though, and statistics would be nice.

Chris Englund 2015-01-26: The 1 star review saying it doesn't work because "it never changes color" is wrong. Mine very seldom changes, which is actually the way it should be. The intent of the app is to get as many proxy bridges as possible.This app makes the world a better place!

Tydyn Rain St. Clair 2013-07-03: I presently run 7 Tor non-exit relays/directory servers because I KNOW clearly just how important the Tor Project is. This extension is a fantastically simple means of creating more Tor Bridges to allow people in censured countries to get connected to the Tor Network. Install it now to contribute!
