+    Currently Tor Browser disables the Crash Reporter. We would like to
1085
+    build it reproducible, enable it, and configure it to report crashes
1086
+    containing non-detailed and impersonal information to Tor, on a .onion
1087
+    submission platform that would allow us to view and explore the
1088
+    crashes.

1092
+    The project will entail enabling the Crash Report on Tor Browser and
1093
+    creating a backend to receive reports from it. Once created, the crash
1094
+    reporter data will be analyzed and modified to fit Tor's requirements
1095
+    for personal data collection. As time permits, we will update the
1096
+    build system to ensure the crash reporter is built reproducibly and
1097
+    add data analysis tools for the crash report database to visualize top
1098
+    crashers and similar statistics.

+    This project will enable and take advantage of HTTP/2, the Alt-Srv
1109
+    header, and tor's new single hop .onion mode to enable websites to
1110
+    transparently move their traffic to a .onion address. In addition to
1111
+    improvements in security, we will benchmark page load and paint times
1112
+    under normal HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, and when taking advantage of features
1113
+    such as Server Push.
