Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security.


Snowflake Tor is described as 'Snowflake is a system to defeat internet censorship. People who are censored can use Snowflake to access the internet. Their connection goes through Snowflake proxies, which are run by volunteers' and is a popular anonymizing network in the web browsers category. There are more than 10 alternatives to Snowflake Tor for a variety of platforms, including Mac, Windows, Linux, BSD and Android apps. The best Snowflake Tor alternative is Tor, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Snowflake Tor are I2P, Arti, ZeroNet and GNUnet.

The I2P network provides strong privacy protections for communication over the Internet. Many activities that would risk your privacy on the public Internet can be conducted anonymously inside I2P.




Arti is a project to produce an embeddable, production-quality implementation of the Tor anonymity protocols in the Rust programming language.

ZeroNet uses cryptography (Bitcoin library) and BitTorrent DHT (centralized trackers) to build a distributed censorship-resistant network.




GNUnet is a framework for secure peer-to-peer networking that does not use any centralized or otherwise trusted services. A first service implemented on top of the networking layer allows anonymous censorship-resistant file-sharing.



Lokinet is a decentralised onion router that uses Oxen service nodes as relays, giving Lokinet the same market-based Sybil attack resistance as the Oxen blockchain. Lokinet supports web browsing, onion-routed real-time voice communications, and other applications.

I2P+ is an enhanced version of the Java I2P anonymizing network platform that aims to deliver a superior user experience and improved network performance while retaining full compatibility with upstream I2P.




URnetwork is a decentralized peer-to-peer VPN that provides anonymous and censorship-resistant access to the internet. It routes connections through a large network of user-operated nodes called "providers".




Torxy is a free program that can help protect your online privacy and bypass firewall and location based restrictions, by routing Internet traffic through Tor.

Lantern allows you to give or get access to the internet through other users around the world connected by a trust-based peer-to-peer network.
