Snowflake for Chrome

Cupcake - A Snowflake Chrome Extension for Tor Network Access

'Cupcake' is a unique Chrome extension that transforms your browser into a flash proxy or a temporary bridge to the Tor network. Principally designed to assist censored internet users across the globe, Cupcake taps into the innovative Snowflake technology to forge these vital connections. By installing it, users can contribute to fostering free and open internet access, without compromising their own IP address or privacy. It should be noted, however, that Cupcake doesn't independently provide uncensored internet access and works best in conjunction with the full Tor Browser Bundle.
