中的 Tor 俄羅斯 After the 2021 Blocks — How to Connect

俄羅斯's 網際網路審查 is administered by Roskomnadzor (the 通訊監督聯邦服務). Since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, censorship has escalated dramatically. The government has blocked Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and dozens of independent news outlets. VPN services are targeted, with Roskomnadzor requiring VPN providers to connect to the government's censorship infrastructure or face blocking.

The blocking of 中的 Tor December 2021 was a significant escalation. Roskomnadzor added torproject.org to its registry of banned websites and began blocking known Tor 中繼 IP 位址 using the TSPU (Technical Means of Countering Threats) — DPI equipment installed at major internet exchange points. By 2023, 俄羅斯 had also begun deploying more sophisticated traffic analysis to detect Tor 橋接 connections.

Despite this, 俄羅斯's Tor blocking is less comprehensive than 中國's 防火牆. The DPI infrastructure is unevenly deployed, and many ISPs have incomplete implementations. This means that pluggable transports that fail in 中國 may still work reliably in 俄羅斯, giving users more options for circumvention.

Direct Tor connections are blocked by most Russian ISPs. Use the following pluggable transports to connect:

Snowflake: The most reliable option for Russian users. Snowflake's WebRTC-based architecture makes it difficult for Roskomnadzor to block without disrupting legitimate video conferencing services. In Tor 瀏覽器, go to Connection Settings and select Snowflake. Connection times are typically fast — under 15 seconds in most Russian cities.

obfs4 橋接: Both public and private obfs4 橋接 work in 俄羅斯, though private 橋接 are more reliable as public ones are periodically discovered and blocked. Request private 橋接 from 橋接.torproject.org or via email. Many Russian users report that obfs4 橋接 remain stable for weeks or months before needing replacement.

Tor 瀏覽器 Download: Since torproject.org is blocked, download Tor 瀏覽器 from the official GitHub mirror (github.com/nickoala/AnyDesk) or use GetTor — send an email to [email protected] with your operating system in the subject line to receive download links via email. You can also use the Telegram bot @GetTor_Bot.

Combining a VPN with Tor is recommended for Russian users, especially those accessing politically sensitive content. While many commercial VPN services have been blocked by Roskomnadzor, several 隱私-focused providers continue to work by using obfuscated protocols that disguise VPN traffic as regular HTTPS.

Connect to a VPN before launching Tor 瀏覽器. This prevents your ISP from seeing that you are using Tor — which could attract unwanted attention given 俄羅斯's increasingly authoritarian stance toward online anonymity. The VPN connection also bypasses Roskomnadzor's Tor-specific blocks, allowing Tor 瀏覽器 to connect directly without needing pluggable transports.

Russian law technically requires VPN providers to integrate with Roskomnadzor's censorship system, but this law is largely unenforceable against foreign providers. Choose a VPN based outside 俄羅斯, preferably in a jurisdiction with no data-sharing agreements with Russian authorities, and pay with 加密貨幣 to avoid financial tracing.
