What We Do
Driving Change; Securing Freedom
We help people overcome censorship, stay safe online, and raise their voices on the global stage. Our work is organized into three core programs:
Internet Freedom
We expand access to uncensored internet through satellite connectivity, community networks, and secure circumvention tools.
Digital & Civil Society Resilience
We defend activists, journalists, and communities from surveillance and digital threats, providing the tools and support they need to stay resilient.
Advocacy & Research
We expose repression, publish research on censorship and surveillance, and work with global partners to advance digital rights and freedom.
Our Mission
Protecting privacy. Expanding access. Strengthening voices.
“Authoritarian firewalls are the new Iron Curtain. Every line of code we write and every connection we restore is a crack in that wall.”

Stories of Resilience
“In all these years that I have been in various Telegram groups, this group has been one of the best in its field and is seriously active and helpful. Amidst all the challenges and problems of life, the efforts of the NasNet team and group members are truly heartwarming.”
—Starlink User on Telegram, Iran
"NasNet is not just tech. It’s people helping people. When I had a setup problem, someone I’ve never met stayed with me step by step until it worked. That matters.”
—Starlink User on Telegram, Iran
"Mahsa Alert helped us see what was really happening around us when information was confusing or blocked."
— Anonymous User, Iran
“MahsaNG is the best VPN app that I tried in Iran, even with heavily blocked internet, and it still penetrates the GFW [Great Firewall] like butter. Thx guys. 5 stars is not enough!”
— VPN User Review on Google Play, Iran
"The work by RaazNet helped us understand how surveillance actually works, not just in theory. It showed us where the risks are, how systems are connected, and how ordinary people are monitored in daily life.”
— Anonymous, X User
"RaazNet content changed how we talk about surveillance, from fear to documented facts. RaazNet turned scattered reports into clear evidence that could be verified, mapped, and shared with confidence."
