The New York Times
OfficialFull NYT edition over Tor, unaffected by regional blocks.
www.nytimesn…iiyd.onionOpenNews & journalism
International newsrooms with an .onion mirror for readers in censored regions.
Major newsrooms run official .onion mirrors so readers in countries where their sites are blocked — Russia, Iran, China, Belarus, many more — can still read the reporting without their local network operator seeing what they opened. The Tor mirror is end-to-end encrypted to the newsroom's own server, which means no exit-node interception and no DNS leak either. Every entry below is an address the newsroom has itself published, either in their help pages or in a signed announcement.
