#defcon32 Come get them at our booth!

Only one more week until #defcon32 kicks off. Our bags are packed to the brim with some new and e(xc)lusive Tor merch! Stop by our booth at @defcon and check out our new enamel pins, hats, and much more!

Join us at #defcon32 for a talk on the Tor network that will focus on how we maintain a healthy network and community, detect and mitigate attacks–all with the help of metrics and usage patterns.

🚫 Simplified Onion Site Errors: Consistent design with other Network Errors for a smoother browsing experience when you encounter issues in the onionverse. 🧵5/5

🌉 Improved Bridge Settings: Redesigned bridge cards, easier bridge sharing, and a new section to find or request more bridges–allowing users to retrieve bridges without needing to connect to Tor first. Censored users, we’ve got you covered! 🧵4/5

🔒 "Betterboxing": we've polished letterbox to improve the UX of Tor Browser's fingerprinting protections. Find a letterboxing section in General Settings with options to remember window size and adjust alignment. 🧵3/5

🌐 New Connection Experience: While we await Connection Assist's arrival, we've overhauled connection screens with a new, "native" implementation, making it consistent with desktop and its censorship circumvention experience. 🧵2/5

🚀 Tor Browser 13.5 is here bringing some major updates for 📱Android and 💻 Desktop–from a revamped connection experience and a permanent home for Tor logs to improved bridge settings and a letterboxing redesign.
