## Avoiding Censorship |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Although Tox is distributed, to initially connect to the network |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[public bootstrap nodes](https://nodes.tox.chat) are used. After first run, |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
other nodes will also be saved and reused on next start. We have seen multiple |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reports of Tox bootstrap nodes being blocked in China. We haven't seen reports |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of Tox connections in general being blocked, though Tox makes no effort to |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disguise its connections. There are multiple options available to help avoid |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
blocking of bootstrap nodes: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Tox can be used with a VPN. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Tox can be used with a proxy, including with Tor |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* This can be done at [startup](#commandline-proxy-options) or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* By setting [connection settings](#connection-settings). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* [Custom bootstrap nodes](#bootstrap-nodes) can be set. Note that these |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
require the DHT key of the node, which is different from the longterm Tox |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
public key, and which changes on every start of a client, so it's best to use a |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[bootstrap daemon](https://github.com/TokTok/c-toxcore/tree/master/other/bootstrap_daemon). |
