Today is Day 2 of our annual State of the Onion Tune in at 17:00 UTC to hear how Amnesty Tech, the Guardian Project (@guardianproject) @ooni, EFF (@eff), CalyxOS and many more have made an impact using Tor in 2023.
On 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtgTwho1wfQ
Or as an 🧅 on Tor Browser: http://xgsobitduxv7gcc5qlveigwiku7qcjn5exf4ayusw4mwq7kfrapmrjyd.onion/

We encourage news organizations to make news sites available on the Tor Network as well to protect readers.

Thanks to the Guardian and others who have already done so. https://www.theguardian.com/help/insideguardian/2022/may/30/guardian-launches-tor-onion-service

We couldn't be happier that one of the most recognized human rights organizations has adopted an onion service to provide greater online protections for those seeking information, support, and advocacy. Amnesty's choice to offer an onion version of their website underlines the role of this open source privacy technology as a vital tool in our shared work of advancing human rights.
