@torproject Is @tails_live even an official Mastodon account for Tails? No posts in 2 years. And no links from the Tails website to that Mastodon account.

We have released updates to #Arti to resolve a pair of security issues related to circuit construction for onion services. If you use arti to connect to #OnionServices or to run onion services, and you are using Arti 1.2.2 or tor-circmgr 0.18.0, you should upgrade. 🟢🔁🧅blog.torproject.org/arti_1_2_3

Turkmenistan's internet is one of the most tightly controlled and censored in the world. @adalatseeker published an article explaining how the "true goal of the Cyber ​​​​Security Service is not to restrict access to 'dangerous' information, but business on this access...Tor, which could be used for free, was perceived by corrupt officials in the Cybersecurity Service as a competitor." 🧵[1/3]

Tor bridges are still reachable in Turkmenistan, allowing people to bypass internet blocks. we are actively working on expanding the number of bridges we can provide. metrics.torproject.org/usersta [2/3]

Hi Tor Project,

Thanks for your continued work. We would like to bring to the fore a few ideas.

a) Have TorProject considered a 'Page not working?!' button in Tor Browser? It could have an exclaimation and question mark [!?] icon. We think it could allow Tor Browser to **default** to Safest Mode. When a person presses the button they get a set of ordered options:
1) A #magicWand and #magicEraser to show or hide HTML elements without the…1/3

Turkmenistan continues to block Tor and anti-censorship tools at a large scale. Tor bridges prove to be one of the few free alternatives to access the open internet. If you have the resources to help, please consider running bridges. How? Take a look: forum.torproject.org/t/tor-rel

Can you put Tor version 0.4.7.14 in whatever directory authority required to it not being flagged as 'not recommended' on my relay search page?

Speaking of new icons, the circuit display received its own colorful icon and a dedicated new space. 🚩🚩 Flags make circuit locations easier to identify at a glance and we've rebuilt the whole panel for better compatibility with screen readers.

We've introduced new 🧅 onion site icons with our latest browser release (12.5). As onion services are experiencing more popularity and their use by third-party apps has increased, it was time to give them a new identity.💜

@torproject Looks so beautiful and well thought that it's gonna make me cry.

PSA Warning to #Tor users:

The self-updating #TorBrowser broke¹ for me spontaneously. Apparently version 12.5.

This is why I hate auto-updates.. your stuff automatically breaks at spontaneous moments. I also don’t like having no control over how much of my data quota is being used or when.

I really wish I had disabled auto updates. I just now “closed the barn doors after the horses have bolted.”

Tor Browser lets you see the update history, but lacks a mechanism to revert back to a working version when it breaks.

1. It launches but cannot connect to the Tor network, even though the tor daemon works fine and other apps can use the tor daemon.

@torproject That's awesome! Have you fixed any of the security and privacy vulnerabilities that have been open for decades?

@torproject that's amazing news, congrats!
Are there any things you were able to upstream, accessibility-wise?
