This uses domain fronting, which both Google and Amazon forced Signal to stop using in 2018: https://signal.org/blog/looking-back-on-the-front/ https://signal.org/blog/looking-back-on-the-front/ Did cloud providers get more permissive since then? EDIT: Tor also got hit by some shutdowns in 2018 due to its use of domain fronting: https://blog.torproject.org/domain-fronting-critical-open-web/ https://blog.torproject.org/domain-fronting-critical-open-we... https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-launcher/-/issues/40007 https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-launcher/... From the second link, looks like the plan is that Snowflake will annoy cloud providers less by only using the domain-fronting channel to propagate routing info: > sending Tor traffic directly through domain fronting (rather than using it only to distribute bridges and snowflakes) enables these platforms to claim that this technique is used by malware and therefore harmful to users, justifying shutting it down. > Snowflake is a more sustainable way for us to use the expensive but high censorship-resistance features of domain fronting as a low bandwidth bootstrapping channel.
