Hello Tor supporters!

The biggest change introduced thanks to this project is a generic publish-subscribe mechanism for delivering messages internally. It is meant to help us improve the modularity of our code by avoiding direct coupling between modules that don't actually need to invoke one another.

I'd like to tell you about some of our work your contributions can help over the coming year. I'll be focusing on things that my team works on in the "tor" program itself.

Today, the Tor network is composed of more than 6000 relays.

The Tor network is comprised of thousands of volunteer-run relays around the world, and millions of people rely on it for privacy and freedom online everyday. To monitor the Tor network's performance, detect attacks on it, and better distribute load across the network, we employ what we call Tor bandwidth scanners.

OnionShare is an open source tool for securely and anonymously sending and receiving files using Tor onion services. OnionShare 2 adds anonymous dropboxes, supports new Tor addresses, and is translated into a dozen new languages.
