Is there any indicator if my snowflake installation work ? I don’t know if it really help anyone.

I use PC behind NAT, and sometime behind company firewall.

I tried installing it but got a security warning from Windows. I assume it’s a false positive ‘make sure you know what you’re doing’ situation, but I’d still like to know more about what’s happening

From their website:

Snowflake is a system that allows people from all over the world to access censored websites and applications. Similar to how VPNs assist users in getting around Internet censorship, Snowflake helps you avoid being noticed by Internet censors by making your Internet activity appear as though you’re using the Internet for a regular video or voice call.

Did you know that Snowflake proxies are operated entirely by volunteers? In other words, a user gets matched with a random Snowflake volunteer proxy, which is run by a volunteer like you! So, if you want to help people bypass censorship, consider installing and running a Snowflake proxy. The only prerequisite is that the Internet in your country is not heavily censored already.
