Hi LibTech, Many thanks & congrats to the Tor Project team for this really easy-to-use new version, I hardly see any reason why someone who can run an 'average browser' wouldn't be able to use this one. For non-techies looking for user-friendly privacy tools, that's pretty cool :)
Still, there was something that I liked in the Vidalia control panel -- the possibility to relay traffic via the 'setup relaying' button. I didn't find any corresponding settings in the new version. So, 1/ does this mean that any user of the new Tor Browser is a relay by default ? (I wouldn't like that much), or 2/ does this mean that any user is, by default, NOT a relay ? (I wouldn't like this at all, being part of the network while using it always appeared to me as a matter of principle), or 3/ are these settings so well hidden that you can't find it via GUI ? or, 4/ am I just blind and/or dumb ? (I can't reasonably exclude this option.) Best, Amaelle Le 17/06/2013 15:45, Jacob Appelbaum a écrit : > Hi, > > I'm really excited to say that Tor Browser has had some really important > changes.
