We're not exempt just because we live in Northern Minnesota. Disinformation campaigns have made their way to our backyard, leading to QAnon support, our neighbors participating at The Capitol, and even engaging in acts of vandalism at protests.

Please support the freedom of speech by supporting the Tor Project and be mindful of malware/ransomware and trojans. Thank you.

A lot of us don't know the files we download onto our computer, and these are good resources to be aware that you aren't carrying malware that may be trojans for cyber warfare, or that we may be inviting in bad faith news sources.
We can all keep Ukrainians and Russians connected to uncensored internet via tor by running a snowflake bridge. it's both easy and extremely impactful. All you need to do is add the Snowflake extension on Chrome and Firefox.

Download Snowflake for Firefox. Snowflake is a WebRTC pluggable transport for Tor. Enabling this extension turns your browser into a proxy that connects Tor users in censored regions to the Tor network.
