Running Snowflakes to help censored people, Roger Dingledine, #FOSSASIA Summit 2026

Want to help people bypass internet censorship? Learn how to run a Tor Snowflake proxy and support users in regions where governments block access to the open internet.

This hands-on workshop explains how Snowflake, the Tor Project’s censorship circumvention system, uses WebRTC to help users connect securely when Tor and VPNs are blocked. You’ll learn how the protocol works, why it’s safe to volunteer, and how to run a Snowflake proxy using your browser, mobile device, Linux server, or VPS.

Whether you’re a developer, privacy advocate, or open source enthusiast, you’ll leave ready to contribute to global internet freedom with just a few minutes of setup.

Robust Lifting of Open-World 2D Bounding Boxes with Boxer

Daniel DeTone, Research Scientist at Meta Reality Labs Research, presents Boxer at CVPR 2026 in Denver, Colorado. Boxer lifts 2D object detections into static, global, fused 3D oriented bounding boxes (OBBs) from posed images and semi-dense point clouds. It is focused on indoor object detection and comes with a pre-trained model for running inference on a variety of data sources.
