Wtf does this do

This repository belongs to GreatFire, an organization that monitors internet censorship in China. The repository's README consists almost entirely of images and download links, with no written description of what the project is or how it works. The visible link labels in Chinese translate to phrases about downloading a browser called Free Browser. Based on the repository name and organization, this appears to be a wiki or resource hub related to GreatFire's censorship-circumvention tools. However, the README provides no explanatory text, so it is not possible to describe the project's features, installation process, or intended use in any detail beyond what the links themselves suggest.
