snowflake is a project by TOR that allows people to access censored services. Anyone can run a snowflake proxy. I'm using their firefox extension. more details here: https://snowflake.torproject.org/

so. basically alternative tor entry points you can run in your browser for those who can't connect directly to the tor network themselves?
