That's correct. But it is designed so that it can run over PTP IP links, which is the only option in a full internet blackout. Yggdrasil is censorship-resistant in that it can form one big mesh network, without the internet or ISPs. Peering over the internet is just convenience.

If you want to peer over a censored internet connection, you should set up XRay first and peer over that.

Yggdrasil is not a darknet or anti-censorship tool for the internet. It's an alternative to the internet.
