LIVE from Devcon 8: @torproject co-founder Roger Dingledine says: "Do you want me to be able to know what your agents are doing on the internet?" His answer when an FBI official told him Tor surely had a backdoor. @EFDevcon

Our Tool of the Week is Tor VPN Beta by @torproject. Built from scratch for Android, it routes selected apps through separate Tor circuits—hiding users’ IP addresses, separating their activity and helping them bypass censorship. The project is still in beta and invites community testing and feedback. support.torproject.org/tor-v…

"There's two moments that people realize d the power of Tor, the power of this infrastructure. First one was when Wikileaks decide to use this infrastructure for their journalism, to talk with sources in an anonymous way to protect them and to publish their stories... Another moment was the Arab Spring, because at that moment we saw that censorship is surveillance were really affecting the people who were rising up against authorities." Throwback to our Neo-Cypherpunk Summit, where Isabela Fernandes from @torproject spoke about the importance of censorship resilient public infrastructure. For two decades, Tor has shown what sustained investment in open-source privacy infrastructure can make possible. Watch: youtube.com/watch?v=DjXUorBx…
