# Russian Anticensorship on PAC-Scripts
2015-12-20 23:39:47 +03:00
2018-02-23 13:37:19 +03:00
This repo contains a chrome extension to bypass censorship in Russia: [WebStore ](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/npgcnondjocldhldegnakemclmfkngch )
| [Sources ](./extensions/chromium/runet-censorship-bypass ).
This extension uses pac scripts, one of which (anticensority) is generated by this [pac-generator].

## Why I do This
2015-11-28 18:21:20 +03:00
2015-12-20 23:57:22 +03:00
I believe __information mustn't be blocked based on political or other subjective views__ .
2015-11-28 18:21:20 +03:00
2015-12-20 23:57:22 +03:00
My maxim is _"Your freedom ends when it starts to confine the freedom of others"_ .

Looking at how Russian government [distorts TV ](https://therussianreader.wordpress.com/2015/11/22/russian-truckers-strike-dagestan/ ) and blocks [critics of Putin ](https://www.reuters.com/article/us-russia-internet-idUSBREA2C21L20140313 ),
2018-02-23 13:40:13 +03:00
I decided to write an anticensorship extension for Chromium before they strike me first.

## How it Works
2016-01-06 23:16:41 +03:00
0. PAC script is a JavaScript file, triggered on every URL request, which says browser which proxy to use if any for this particular URL.
2020-09-19 09:20:43 +03:00
1. The Chrome Extension sets PAC script in browser settings and keeps it synced with PAC script on the server (offering Antizapret (hosted on a dedicated server) or Anticensority (hosted on GitHub)).
2017-08-26 20:44:42 +03:00
2. On every request PAC script checks if host is blocked or if its IP is blocked.
2020-09-19 09:20:43 +03:00
3. If address is blocked PAC script returns proxy server to the browser. Antizapret PAC-script uses its own proxy servers and Anticensority PAC-script uses local Tor.
2017-08-26 20:44:42 +03:00
4. PAC scripts on servers are updated periodically from https://github.com/zapret-info/z-i.
