> I don't think that in iran there would still be any available ipv4 entry nodes that they would allow. They would filter/block it as well?

That's what bridges are for.

Blocking is a cat and mouse game. It depends how heavy handed they are about it, but unless they totally cut off the external internet, its unlikely tor is 100% blocked, although it might be effectively blocked for most people.





Tor is used relatively little in Iran - https://metrics.torproject.org/userstats-bridge-country.html...

Other tools are much, much more popular, such as Psiphon, Lantern, MahsaNG, etc.


yes, my ex gf from iran also used Psiphon, I didn't trust psiphon that much but it seems that its decently well

In the end I had suggested her protonvpn as psiphon had some issues.

How does Psiphon work and how does it compare with protonvpn? I still trust protonvpn (which has free access as well) more than Psiphon fwiw.
