Ask HN: How to Fight against censorship of Internet?

6 points by kiloreux 7y ago ↗ HN

There are large protests in my country currently (Algeria) against presidential elections. However most people's means of contact and sharing is Facebook which is currently blocked nation wide. What are the best tools to bypass this that could easily work for non-tech savy people?

Vpn + brave browser in tor tab should offer some relief. Facebook is an oppressor and silences speech they don't like. So mileage may very.

Secure Scuttlebutt may be useful.

Facebook is reachable through the official Onion Service at: http://facebookcorewwwi.onion/

Look into bridges and pluggable transports if vanilla Tor is blocked.
