Editing How to bypass ISP censorship (section)

== [https://ooni.org/ OONI Probe] ==
The Open Observatory of Network Interference. A free, open-source software and global network for measuring internet censorship. A project born out of The Tor Project, now an independent non-profit. Volunteers run the OONI Probe app on their mobile devices or computers from within 241 countries. The results are aggregated and published on the public OONI Explorer website. It is used to increase transparency, document censorship events globally, and provide hard, verifiable evidence of network interference and blocking.

The app runs a series of tests to check for censorship:
* '''Web Connectivity:''' It tries to access a list of websites (including globally and locally sensitive ones) from the user's network and from a control network, then compares the results.
* '''App Blocking:''' It tests for blocks on specific apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal.
* '''Circumvention Tool Blocking:''' It tests if circumvention tools themselves (like Tor, Psiphon, and Lantern) are reachable.

'''PROs:'''
* <span style="color:green">'''Provides Hard Evidence:'''</span> It is the best tool for scientifically proving how and what is being censored on a specific network.
* <span style="color:green">'''Global & Open Data:'''</span> All data is publicly available for analysis, which is an invaluable resource for researchers, journalists, and human rights organizations.
* <span style="color:green">'''Easy to Use:'''</span> The mobile app is simple for non-technical volunteers to run.

'''CONs:'''
* <span style="color:red">'''Potential Risk to User:'''</span> Running OONI Probe is not anonymous. Your ISP and any network monitor can see that you are running it. While OONI states the risk is “theoretical” and no user has faced consequences, this is a real risk in high-stakes environments.
* <span style="color:red">'''Provocative Tests:'''</span> The app intentionally tests “provocative or objectionable sites (e.g., pornography)”, which might be illegal to even attempt to access in some countries, regardless of intent.
