Kharon is a small Greasemonkey/HTML5 script that rewrites some darknet links to a proxified version.

This action is performed to permit access to the darknet also in situations where the direct connection it's not available.

Kharon's actually offered doorways

Actually Kharon offers a doorway to the following darknets:

• Tor, throught tor2web.org;
• I2P, throught i2p.to.

How it works ?

Kharon periodically checks the access to the darknets and performs the following actions:

• the darknet it's available? => it assures that no proxified link versions are used performing a rewrite to direct links.

• the darknet it's not available? => it replaces direct links to the darknet with a proxified version.

How checks are implemented ?

Due the the "same origin policy" a real realiable check can't be fulfilled. Actually we are testing the same hack used in javascript portscanning technique (SPI Dynamics / gnucityzen).
