Tor Browser 15.0

  • Onion links and HTTP response dumps for most of the noteworthy Tor hidden services can be found at https://rnsaffn.com/zg4/ Beware, nothing is censored. It's all there, the drugs, the ransomware, the sex crime, the cryptocurrency scams, but also the good stuff that makes Tor great. If a worthwhile or provocative hidden service is missing from the scan, please submit it yourself.

  • I've never torrented anything and have been wary that doing anything with the Tor project on my not-so-private computer just sends up a beacon asking me to be investigated. I don't do anything illegal or plan to, but being investigated alone is enough of a deterrent.

    I suspect this is paranoia on my part, but I would be curious to hear thoughts from this crowd.

    1. If you're threat model is surveillance state, are things like this helpful or harmful? 2. If you need a tool like this, what's the best way to obtain/install this anonymously?

  • If I'm torn about anything for Tor 15, it's that the cadence didn't align with a minimum of Firefox 144 as base.

    Why?

    View Transitions support being implemented in 144 is a very big deal and pushes the web forward for native transition animations.

    In the next two or three versions before the end of 2025, Anchor Positioning will also be a big deal.

    So, congrats on Tor 15, but Tor 16 will bring a massive improvement for Tor!
