+

<p>The Tor Project achieved a lot in the last year. We spent
2018 fighting for the fundamental human rights to privacy and freedom online
and made our software more accessible than ever before.</p>
+
+
<p>This is an important moment in time. More people are looking
for solutions to effectively protect their privacy. <a
href="https://blog.torproject.org/strength-numbers-usable-tools-dont-need-be-invasive";>93%
of the people we met</a> doing 1:1 usability studies said they knew they
needed some protection online. More people need robust censorship circumvention
tools as <a
href="https://blog.torproject.org/strength-numbers-internet-freedom-line";>internet
freedom declines</a> around the world. More people understand the risks that
come from <a
href="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2019/jan/20/shoshana-zuboff-age-of-surveillance-capitalism-google-facebook";>surveillance
as the business model</a> of the internet. And we have been working hard to
make Tor more accessible than ever before with the goal that anyone online can
enjoy the protections our software provides.</p>
+
+
<p>In 2018, we:</p>
+
+
<ul>
+
<li>
+
<p>Gave Tor Browser a UX overhaul with the launch of <a
href="https://blog.torproject.org/new-release-tor-browser-80";>Tor Browser
8.0</a>, making it easier and friendlier to use than ever.</p>
+
</li>
+
<li>
+
<p>Made it easier for people in countries that censor
the internet and censor Tor to circumvent censorship with the ability to fetch
bridges from inside Tor Browser.</p>
+
</li>
+
<li>
+
<p><a
href="https://blog.torproject.org/strength-numbers-internet-freedom-movement-must-be-localized";>Localized</a>
Tor Browser into 9 previously unsupported languages, bringing the number of
available languages to 25.</p>
+
</li>
+
<li>
+
<p>Launched the alpha version of Tor Browser for
Android.</p>
+
</li>
+
<li>
+
<p>Improved our Core Tor code for mobile devices,
optimizing its performances and making it easier for third party mobile apps to
embed Tor.</p>
+
</li>
+
<li>
+
<p>Traveled to meet our users <a
href="https://blog.torproject.org/strength-numbers-usable-tools-dont-need-be-invasive";>face-to-face</a>
and get feedback without using popular and invasive data-collection
practices.</p>
+
</li>
+
<li>
+
<p>Improved the security of v3 onion services with the
<a
href="https://blog.torproject.org/announcing-vanguards-add-onion-services";>vanguards
add-on</a>.</p>
+
</li>
+

<p>Published <a

through OONI</a> on censorship and network disruptions happening around the
world.</p>
+
</li>

<li>
+
<p>Pulled in a <a

of donations</a> as we <a
href="https://techcrunch.com/2019/01/11/tor-lessens-reliance-us-grants/";>reduced
our reliance</a> on government funding. We received donations from 115
countries around the world.</p>

</li>

</li>

<p><em>Guest post by Jonathon Hodge, Digital Literacy Service
Lead, Toronto Public Library</em></p>
+
+
<p>Every public library worker will know that person: the one
who is worried about being spied on.</p>
+
+
<p>For a long time in public libraries, that person was treated
with the kindness and respect we treat every person, regardless of whether we
felt that their concerns may have been overblown. The difference between that
bygone past and today, is that today, that person is right! The internet is <a
href="https://www.newyorker.com/news/amy-davidson/the-n-s-a-verizon-scandal";>spying
on them</a>; it’s <a
href="https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2014/08/google-knows-you-better-than-you-know-yourself/378608/";>spying
on all of us</a>. Even if we <a
href="https://www.recode.net/2018/4/20/17254312/facebook-shadow-profiles-data-collection-non-users-mark-zuckerberg";>don’t
use it very much</a>. Public libraries have long offered effective guidance to
the wealth of information society produces. So the question today is,
‘Are we doing enough for ‘that person’, and by extension, for
all of us?’</p>
+
+
<p>In Toronto, we felt that the answer was NO. Our communities
let us know that they do not know enough about the actual threats they contend
with on the internet, they do not know what tools to use or actions to take to
protect themselves.</p>
+
+
<p>Public librarians can do a great deal to arm our users with
the knowledge, the tools, and the confidence to navigate the surveillance
society online. We in Toronto felt that Tor Browser should be the centerpiece
of a multi-vector <a
href="https://torontopubliclibrary.typepad.com/news_releases/2016/11/toronto-public-library-launches-digital-privacy-initiative.html";>Digital
Privacy Initiative</a>, that combines privacy education, and technology
training and providing privacy-enabling tools at the point of service.</p>

+## Expect More from Tor in 2019 ##
+
+The Tor Project achieved a lot in the last year. We spent 2018 fighting for
the fundamental human rights to privacy and freedom online and made our
software more accessible than ever before.
+
+In the last year, a significant shift took place in the public understanding
of how big tech handles our sensitive, personal information, and how these
companies build tools that further censorship in repressive places. For
instance, Googleâs leaked plans to launch a censored search engine in China
were met with global protest. The world is watching.
+
+At the Tor Project, this is an important moment in time. More people are
looking for solutions to effectively protect their privacy. 93% of the people
we met doing 1:1 usability studies said they knew they needed some protection
online. More people need robust censorship circumvention tools as internet
freedom declines around the world. More people understand the risks that come
from surveillance as the business model of the internet. And we have been
working hard to make Tor more accessible than ever before with the goal that
anyone online can enjoy the protections our software provides.

+## Tor Browser at TPL: Defending Intellectual Freedom, and Winning Awards
Doing So //
+
+Guest post by Jonathon Hodge, Digital Literacy Service Lead, Toronto Public
Library
+
+Every public library worker will know that person: the one who is worried
about being spied on.
+
+For a long time in public libraries, that person was treated with the kindness
and respect we treat every person, regardless of whether we felt that their
concerns may have been overblown. The difference between that bygone past and
today, is that today, that person is right! The internet is spying on them;
itâs spying on all of us. Even if we donât use it very much. Public
libraries have long offered effective guidance to the wealth of information

+
+In Toronto, we felt that the answer was NO. Our communities let us know that
they do not know enough about the actual threats they contend with on the
internet, they do not know what tools to use or actions to take to protect

+
+Public librarians can do a great deal to arm our users with the knowledge, the

Toronto felt that Tor Browser should be the centerpiece of a multi-vector
Digital Privacy Initiative, that combines privacy education, and technology
training and providing privacy-enabling tools at the point of service.
+
+With the software being easy to install and maintain, and with a new public
appetite for secure technology, I would encourage other public libraries to
install Tor Browser. Our professional defense of intellectual freedom can no
longer exist only at the realm of policy. In this age when our tech spies on us
for the sake of massive internet companies and the State, our defense must be a
technological one as well. That tech is Tor.
