The new Tor update has important new features, such as an improvement in security in the Linux version and the addition of Debian compatibility
The immediate availability of Tor has just been announced, the browser that will allow you to browse anonymously and access the so-called deep web. This is version 0.2.8.6 and it comes with important new features.
One of the most important novelties has been the increase in security in the Linux version, in which many bugs found in previous versions have been fixed. In this type of program, security is essential, since a small flaw could destroy the anonymity.
The other novelties have to do with improvements in the tor client startup and in improving other aspects related to the security and proper functioning of the browser. Full support with Debian has also been added.
It seems that Tor is trying to put the batteries to overcome all the problems he was having. A couple of weeks ago, one of the pillars of the project, the great Lucky green, Tor left , taking with it one of the most fundamental nodes for this network. This was coupled with an accusation of sex scandal by another of the heavyweights, which left Tor deeply touched.
Besides that, there are many people who no longer trust the project, since because of the curious and the pedophiles, security agencies such as the NSA are dedicated to finding out how to find out the identity of the users of the network. For these reasons, many people have switched to Freenet.
However, it seems that Tor does not give up and tries to improve, to continue offering anonymous and secure browsing, away from the eyes of Google and company. There are also other people trying to improve Tor, such as the guys from Riflle project, so there is certainly a lot of war left for the onion router.
