Tor is blocked in Russia.

- mardifoufs 5y agoIm not sure if this has changed since my source was published but according to this article[0], the Tor Blocks in russia are not nation wide and originate from individual ISPs: >"According to OONI, it wasn't all of Russia blocking Tor; it was 15 out of 65 subnets. Moreover, each censorship instance used a different blocking method" >"If the censorship was government-sponsored, as the Tor Project suggested, then I would expect it to be much more widespread and consistent. This looks like individual blocking efforts. As OONI noted, the blocks followed a "recent spike in the use of Tor bridges (used for circumventing Tor blocking) in Russia." Though the situation might be totally different now considering the recent events.
