The State of the Onion — The Tor Project
Tor Project Day – November 13, 2024
Join us on Day 1 as the Tor Project’s teams discuss their work over the past year, from major updates to incremental improvements to exciting new tools for fighting censorship and increasing network resilience. Here are some highlights:
- Onion Services Team – Better Access to Onions: Learn about tools like Onionspray—a plug-and-play kit to “onionize” websites—and our ongoing work with the Onion Service Ecosystem Portal to make Onion Services more accessible to everyone.
- Anti-Censorship Team – Strengthening Tor’s Foundation: Find out more about how we’re bolstering Tor’s anti-censorship infrastructure, including what happened since launching Webtunnel, research on Snowflake, ensuring access to Tor with a new bridge distribution mechanism.
- Network Health Team – Measuring Onions: Get a download of what we’re doing to make the user experience more consistent, faster, and safer by better distributing load across the network, according to relay capacity.
We’ll also feature the Community Team’s programs to promote Tor geographic relay diversity, the Application Team’s learnings from over 15 years of developing Tor Browser, and much more.
We couldn’t do the work we’re sharing at this year’s State of the Onion without your support! This event is part of our year-end fundraising campaign. You can fund the Tor Project’s work by making a donation today.
Right now, if you make a donation to Tor, your donation will be matched by a generous donor. That means if you donate $25, they will also donate $25 — effectively doubling your gift and raising $50 for our teams.
You can check out our previous State of the Onion streams on our YouTube channel or replay some of our other virtual events we’ve hosted earlier this year like the Postbox Launch and our event for Global Encryption Day on Distributed Trust.
