A new version of the Twitter website is available on the TOR network after it got banned by the Russian government.
The announcement was made by software developer and internet security evangelist Alec Muffett in a Twitter post.
According to him, he helped Twitter engineers with the adoption of the Tor network as well. Twitter has updated its list of supported browsers to include the Tor network and browser.
While you could already access Twitter’s normal website through the Tor network, the new .onion domain is only accessible through the Tor and browser. Also, since the site is now on the Tor network there is no need for traffic to be routed through a Tor exit node.
This means that both the user and the web server they are using is being anonymised. Otherwise, the user’s traffic is rerouted through Tor relays before going out of the network through an exit node.
To use the TOR network, a user will have to go through multiple captcha codes.
