<h1>Join the Tor Network</h1>

<p>We created a video with <a
href="https://www.tacticaltech.org/">Tactical
Tech</a> to help understand why being a relay matters (<a

version</a>). It is translated into <a

<p>The Tor network relies on volunteers to donate bandwidth. The more
people who run Tor as a relay or a bridge, the faster and safer the
network becomes.</p>

<h2>Run it yourself</h2>
<p>You can run Tor as either a relay or a bridge. A bridge will usually
see less traffic than a relay, and will only be the first hop in the
three hop circuit. </p>

<p>Read the instructions on how to configure a <a href="<page
docs/bridges>#RunningABridge">bridge</a> or a <a href="<page

<h2>Use the cloud</h2>
<p>The <a href="https://cloud.torproject.org/">Tor Cloud</a> project
runs on the Amazon EC2 cloud computing platform. This gives you a
user-friendly way of deploying bridges to help users access an uncensored
Internet. Setting up a Tor bridge on Amazon EC2 is cheap, simple, and
will only take you a couple of minutes.</p>
