+<h2>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE</h2>

+

+<h2><strong>TOR PROJECT ANNOUNCES NEW STABLE RELEASE</strong></h2>

+

+<p><strong>WALPOLE, MA</strong> The Tor Project announces a new stable

+release of the Tor software. More than two years in the making,

+this release features improved client performance and hidden service

+reliability, better compatibility for Android, correct behavior for

+bridges that listen on more than one address, more extensible and flexible

+directory object handling, better reporting of network statistics,

+improved code security, and many many other features and bugfixes.</p>

+

+<p>This release series is dedicated to the memory of Andreas Pfitzmann

+(1958-2010), a pioneer in anonymity and privacy research, a founder of the

+PETS community, a leader in our field, a mentor, and a friend. He left

+us with these words: 

+<blockquote>"I had the possibility to contribute to this world that

+is not as it should be. I hope I could help in some areas to make the

+world a better place, and that I could also encourage other people to

+be engaged in improving the world. Please, stay engaged. This world

+needs you, your love, your initiative -- now I cannot be part of that

+anymore."</blockquote></p>

+

+<p>Tor's tools and technologies are already used by millions of people

+to protect their activities online. These users include journalists and

+human rights workers in politically rigid countries communicating with

+whistleblowers and dissidents.  Law enforcement officers on Internet

+sting operations stay anonymous with Tor, as do people wanting to post

+socially sensitive information in chat rooms, like rape or abuse survivors

+and those with illnesses.  The Tor network also provides protection

+for people looking for another layer of privacy from the millions of

+websites and ISPs bent on collecting private information and tracking

+their moves online.</p>

+<p>Pre-compiled and configured versions of Tor can be found on <a

+

+<h2>ABOUT THE TOR PROJECT</h2>

+

+<p>Based in Walpole, MA, The Tor Project develops free and open-source

+software that provides online anonymity to the everyday Internet

+user. Tor was born out of a collaboration with the U.S. Naval Research

+Lab starting in 2001, and it became an official U.S. 501(c)(3) non-profit

+in 2006. The Tor Project now works with many individuals, NGOs, law

+enforcement agencies, and businesses globally to help them protect their

+anonymity online.</p>

+

+<p>In addition to its efforts developing and maintaining the Tor anonymity

+software and the Tor network, The Tor Project also helps to lead the

+research community in understanding how to build and measure scalable and

+secure anonymity networks. The Tor developers publish several new research

+papers each year in major academic security conferences, and just about

+every major security conference these days includes a Tor-related paper.

+Tor is a project-funded organization with a staff of 15.</p>
