Your Raspberry Pi can join The Tor Project network that helps Russians read censored news sites, including Twitter.
These are all the commands necessary to spin up a Snowflake proxy that gives Tor users a way around government attempts to block access.
You can also run a Snowflake proxy from your web browser with Firefox or Chrome. Standing it up on your Raspberry Pi is a way to support the system 24 hours a day. And, unlike other Tor server setups, it doesn't require a static IP address.
| # Install the Go programming language | |
| sudo apt update | |
| sudo apt install -y golang-go | |
| # Download the Snowflake proxy code | |
| git clone https://git.torproject.org/pluggable-transports/snowflake.git | |
| # Move into the proxy code directory | |
| cd snowflake/proxy | |
| # Set a location for the log | |
| LOG="$(pwd)/snowflake.log" | |
| # Start up the proxy to run silently in the background while outputting its activity to the log | |
| nohup ./proxy >"$LOG" 2>&1 & |
i've run this shell script several times now (always rm-ing the created files and folders) on my RPi 3.
cat snwoflake.log
always prompts
nohup: failed to run command './proxy': No such file or directory
what am i missing?
@MOTSM-HD You first have to build the Snowflake proxy with the following commands in the /snowflake/proxy path:
go get
go build
Run every command in the script yourself and run these two commands after cd snowflake/proxy
Or use my fixed version
@sidawson There is also a docker alternative that you can run on your raspberry Pi: https://gist.github.com/palewire/52504f4a52d8173935d5f0cf638d0280
