Personally, if you need to use a Bridge (this is not necessary for a non-hostile environment), you should pick a Meek-Azure.

In some environments, your ISPs might be trying to prevent you from accessing Tor. Or accessing Tor openly might be a safety risk.

In those cases, it might be necessary to use Tor bridges to connect to the Tor network (see Tor Documentation <https://2019.www.torproject.org/docs/bridges> <sup>[[Archive.org]][244]</sup> and Whonix Documentation <https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Bridges> <sup>[[Archive.org]][337]</sup>).

Bridges are special Tor entry nodes that are not listed on the Tor public directory. Some of those are running on people running the Snowflake Browser extension[^520] while others are running on various servers around the world. Most of those bridges are running some type of obfuscation method called obfs4[^521].

Some of those are called "Meek" bridges and are using a technique called "Domain Fronting" where your Tor client (Tails, Tor Browser, Whonix Gateway) will connect to a common CDN used by other services. To a censor, it would appear you are connecting to a normal website such as Microsoft.com. See <https://gitlab.torproject.org/legacy/trac/-/wikis/doc/meek> for more information.

As per their definition from their manual: "meek transports make it look like you are browsing a major web site instead of using Tor. meek-azure makes it look like you are using a Microsoft web site".

See ["domain fronting"](https://www.bamsoftware.com/papers/fronting/#sec:introduction) from the link in the previous paragraph for a detailed explanation of these types of secret "bridges".

Lastly, there are also bridges called Snowflake bridges that rely on users running the snowflake extension in their browser to become themselves entry nodes. See <https://snowflake.torproject.org/> <sup>[[Archive.org]][563]</sup>.
