Onion is decentralized. You could install your own server, relaying
encrypted traffic from others. I doubt it would be possible for them to
block *all* the onion relays...

First rule of security: Never trust any claim that states something is
untraceable and uncensorable.
Tor completely anonymous?
I hope the following will convince you never to have such sentiments
about *any* system:

He didn't really try too hard, IIRC (I didn't reread the article).

Granted.
But then there should be a procedure by which a citizen can challenge
the blocking (blockage?) of a certain web site, and have that decided by
a committee (which could ultimately be taken to a court of law).

OK, If I were Finnish and if the law is going to do illegal stuff like
this coz is convenient and start dictatorship bull shit, I'd stick to
