Mostly blocked

159 of the 160 URLs we have a verdict for under torproject.org are blocked in mainland China; 1 are not. The site itself, https://torproject.org, is blocked. The Great Firewall silently drops its packets so requests time out, poisons its DNS and breaks its TLS handshake. 4,350 tests have been run under this domain since 2011-02-25, the most recent on 2026-08-06.

About torproject.org and the Great Firewall

Is torproject.org blocked in mainland China?

159 of the 160 URLs we have a verdict for under torproject.org are blocked in mainland China; 1 are not. The site itself, https://torproject.org, is blocked. The Great Firewall silently drops its packets so requests time out, poisons its DNS and breaks its TLS handshake. 4,350 tests have been run under this domain since 2011-02-25, the most recent on 2026-08-06.

How can I reach torproject.org from mainland China?

A VPN or another circumvention tool routes the request outside mainland China, past the filtering that blocks torproject.org. GreatFire runs GreatFire VPN; the Analyzer also tests the domains of many VPN and proxy providers, so you can check whether one is reachable before relying on it.
