Hello, Russia is extending their Tor block[0]. Currently, they block Fully Encrypted Protocols like obfs4 on some mobile networks[1]. For a while, WebTunnel has been a good alternative, but since June, Roskomnadzor has enumerated some WebTunnel bridges and blocked them by domain name[2]. Bridge operators can bypass this block by creating a new subdomain or using a new domain for their WebTunnel bridge. We are working on multiple solutions for this problem. And one of them is to start distributing WebTunnel bridges over Telegram[3]. In the past, our Telegram distribution bot has proved to be fairly resistant to the attempts to enumerate bridges made by the Russian censor. But to be able to do that, we first need to have enough bridges assigned to that distributor. We are looking for a minimum of 30 bridges assigned to this distributor. If you are in the capacity to host a WebTunnel bridge, please do so! You can follow the documentation on the Community portal[4] and configure your WebTunnel bridge with this option in your torrc: BridgeDistribution telegram Or if you're using our Docker container, you will need to add the lines below to your .env file: OBFS4_ENABLE_ADDITIONAL_VARIABLES=1 OBFS4V_BridgeDistribution=telegram It is ok if your WebTunnel bridge is on the same IP address of another existing WebTunnel bridge as long as is in a different subdomain name, for example www1.example.com. As the censor is blocking the bridges by domain name and not by IP. Please avoid hosting your bridge with Hetzner, Digital Ocean, OVH and do not use Cloudflare DNS, as there are reports of these are being targeted and blocked by DPI[5]. Thank you.
