Hi
Tor,
Those
are the highlights from last month:
*
Tor Browser
Tor
Browser 8 got released, and I'm proud of the work we did in
collaboration with the Development, Community and Communications
teams.
We
thought about the user experience browsing with Tor Browser 8 as
an opportunity to educate users. Educated users empower our
product.
The
new circuit display, the onion padlock, and the new onboarding
are just the beginning.
Tor
Browser for Android got it first alpha release, please download
it and let us know what do you think!
*
Tor Browser Icon
Tor
browser got significant visual updates, and we think that our
icon should reflect it. Yes, Tor Browser needs a new icon *_*
I
have been working on some concepts to replace the globe icon.
What do you think? Do you have ideas? Dump there at the ticket!
*
New torproject.org Website
After
the support portal launch, we continued our Tor Project website
redesign focusing on landing pages. We are working with the
Communications Team iterating content and layout.
You
anxious? Feel free to sneak peek the prototype here:

is traveling through Kenya meeting and interviewing our users.
We
are using the ticket #27010 for hosting all our usability
research efforts.

Academic Research
Marshini
Chetty and Agnieszka Dutkowska-Żuk from Princeton have been
playing with .onions for a while and also they wrote a paper
(!).
Last
month we met to talk about further usability research related
with onion services and Tor Browser. Thanks, Marshini and
Agnieszka!
