Tor Browser 7.5.3 is released

by boklm | March 26, 2018

Tor Browser 7.5.3 is now available from the Tor Browser Project page and also from our distribution directory.

This release features important security updates to Firefox.

This release updates Firefox to 52.7.3esr. In addition, we are updating HTTPS Everywhere to 2018.3.13.

The full changelog since Tor Browser 7.5.2 is:

  • All platforms
    • Update Firefox to 52.7.3esr
    • Update HTTPS Everywhere to 2018.3.13
      • Bug 25339: Adapt build system for Python 3.6 based build procedure

tor browser

tbb-7.5

That has nothing to do with obfs4. They seem to be blocking Tor in general. I guess one way to try to fix that is asking them why they are doing that and getting them to revert that on their side.

What is the Point of joining your network, now that we know, You share all of your information and contacts with the alphabet group. This has to end. Time to reveal the truth!. Stop the deception!, Its over !, The revealing is here. Confess to what you have done and maybe there will be empathy for you !

I check the guard node when I start to use Tor. Almost always it is the same one. Sometimes it is a different one - on a few occasions it is the same 'different one' that I have seen before.

Why is this?

Thanks

A novice

I have noticed this as well. If I set torbrowser to not censored in my country I get the IP 108.53.208.157, If censored in my country is selected I get with OBFS4 bridge selected I always get bridge: OBFS4 (Netherlands)

Thanks for all the good work.

Do you envision a time when TOR will include an ad or tracking blocker like TAILS does?

Why is it so difficult to get an answer from the developers regarding the possibility of playing YouTube videos over Tor, or even seeing the page content?

One correspondent a few days ago pointed out that for the High security settings you yourselves say “High - At this level, HTML5 video and audio media become click-to-play via NoScript;”

I too have looked at the NoScript website (apologies if I have missed it) but I can’t find any information there either.

Thanks for your help.

The tor circuit always shows the same initial address when not using a tor bridge. When a bridge is used like obfs4 I see a circuit as follows.

˚this browser
˚ Bridge: OBSf4 (Netherlands)
˚Germany (173.212.228.203)
˚France (163.172.132.199)
˚Internet

The value fro Bridge never changes in this case "Bridge: OBSf4 (Netherlands)" even though I perform "new tor circuit for this site" or "new identity" even closing the app and reopening doesn't change the value. I am connected to a Japan network when testing.

Do you consider this a security issue?

I have been using Tor for a couple of months. A couple of weeks ago I started going to some .onion sites.

Up until yesterday, when I went to an .onion site and checked the route my traffic was taking under the green onion and ‘Tor circuit for this site’, I saw the usual 3 nodes (guard, middle and exit) followed by three unnamed nodes to the .onion site (relay/relay/relay).

Yesterday when visiting a couple of .onion sites the guard, middle and exit nodes were mentioned but there was no mention of the additional three relays to the sites.

Does that mean that, in order to reach an .onion site, the browser can by-pass the additional three relays, or was that just a problem with the ‘Tor circuit for this site’ indicator information?
Today everything is back to normal 3 named nodes and 3 unnamed relays?

Please clarify.
Thanks.

Hello guys and gals,,, you got to find a way around this recapcha bullshit, to many sites are using it and Tor is just blocked outright... Google is the devil here and won't even give you a capcha image at times and the other times won't let Tor users complete it!!!

Here are your bridges:

To enter bridges into Tor Browser, first go to the Tor Browser download
page [0] and then follow the instructions there for downloading and starting
Tor Browser.

When the 'Tor Network Settings' dialogue pops up, click 'Configure' and follow
the wizard until it asks:
