The Tor +network's 3000 volunteer relays carry 16 Gbps for upwards of half a +million daily users, including ordinary citizens who want protection +from identity theft and prying corporations, corporations who want to +look at a competitor's website in private, people around the world whose +Internet connections are censored, and even governments and law +enforcement. Tor has a staff of 14 paid developers, researchers, and +advocates, plus many dozen volunteers who help out on a daily basis. Tor +is funded in part by government research and development grants, and in +part by individual and corporate donations. +</p> + + </div> + <!-- END MAINCOL --> + <div id = "sidecol"> +#include "side.wmi" +#include "info.wmi" + </div> + <!-- END SIDECOL --> +</div> +<!-- END CONTENT --> +#include <foot.wmi> + diff --git a/about/en/jobs.wml b/about/en/jobs.wml index b859d4d..eab3af4 100644 --- a/about/en/jobs.wml +++ b/about/en/jobs.wml @@ -12,18 +12,18 @@ <div id="maincol"> <h1>The Tor Project is always looking for more great people to join our team!</h1> -<p>At the moment, we don't have any official open positions.
