Hey Shava! Thanks for your feedback.
We wanted the headline to suggest that Lantern was the next new, exciting
thing in anti-censorship, and the easiest way to signal that was by

Totally agreed. We've been considering integrating Tor nodes in some way

Google Ideas, the New York City-based “think/do tank” run by the
Internet search giant, is launching several new technologies designed
