August Fundraising Report
by Sarah Stevenson 10 Jan '20

10 Jan '20

Hello Tor world. Here is the Fundraising team’s report for August. As always, let us know if you have any questions. ## Events We ran our first booth at DEF CON in August. It was an exhausting few days, but we exceeded our goal and raised over $43,000! We also made several connections with folks who want to help us with projects in the coming months. We have compiled lessons learned and are looking forward to attending again next year. ## Appeals The Bug Smash campaign[1] ran from August 1 to August 31. We raised a little over $86K across postal mail, social media, email appeal, and in-person gifts at DEF CON and CCCamp. We received a mixture of currencies, including a variety of cryptocurrencies. This a strong increase over August 2018 when we raised $13K. ## Grants We submitted a grant to RIPE NCC Community Project’s support program for 50,000 EUR to improve our IPv6 support. Thanks to teor, Nick, & Gaba for their help writing this proposal. We submitted a concept note to OTF for a large Tor Browser project which would move us away from the ESR cycle and onto Mozilla’s regular release cycle; it would also allow us to implement some of Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection features. Thanks to the Browser team and Pili for making this happen! We found out that two of our grant requests were declined, one to NLnet for ESR migration and the other to the Deer Creek Foundation for Communications work. Upcoming grant requests: DRL SOIs for Community and Scalability, due 9/20 MOSS Scalability project, due 9/?? (rolling) NLnet, due 10/1 Herb Block Foundation, due 10/3 NSF Dark Decoys project, due ?? (rolling) ## Cryptocurrency We made a connection with a company called The Giving Block[2] that helps nonprofits accept cryptocurrency donations called. We are now listed on their website and will participate in their Giving Tuesday efforts this coming December. We are also discussing other ways to collaborate. ## Monthly Donors We continue to see growth in our monthly donor program, Defenders of Privacy. In August we received $5,386.75 from this group. As you can see in the chart below, our efforts to recognize and communicate with these donors has resulted in more stable income and less attrition. We should expect the group to continue to grow through the end of the year and then have a dip again in January when people tend to reassess their monthly commitments.

Tor Browser team meeting notes, 16 September 2019
by Matthew Finkel 17 Dec '19

17 Dec '19

Hello! We held our weekly Tor Browser meeting on Monday in #tor-meeting2. Here is the IRC log: http://meetbot.debian.net/tor-meeting2/2019/tor-meeting2.2019-09-16-17.30.l… >From the weekly updates, we discussed and planned a Tor Browser Alpha release for Mac OS X due to the new notarization requirement. This will allow for additional testing before Tor Browser 9.0 becomes the stable version. We also discussed backporting a patch onto Tor Browser 8.5 for this and including it in the next stable release. >From the discussions, we decided on making about:blank the default New Tab page (instead of Firefox's new about:home page), and about:tor will be an alternative option. We are also beginning the triage of Tor Browser tickets for Bug Smashing and we are adding the keyword "BugSmashFund" on the applicable tickets. Finally, we are aiming at releasing the new Tor Network Settings UI in an upcoming alpha release. This moves the configuration settings menu from Tor Launcher into the browser's preferences screen (about:preferences#tor). Below are the notes from our meeting pad: Discussion: (acat) Should we allow users to change New Tab page to "Firefox Home" (Firefox default new tab page)? see https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/31575 (pili) BugSmashFund: if you see any bugs that are outside sponsor work and would be good to fix after ESR68 work is over please tag on trac with "BugSmashFund" keyword (pili) Gentle reminder to update tickets for September with points estimate and actual points once closed. (anto) could we have #31286 (Tor Network Settings on about:preferences#tor) on alpha channel? GeKo: Last week: - Bug 30126: Apple notarization - Bug 31538: Windows reproducibility - Bug 31584: Clean-up mingw-w64 project (currently testing a final patch) - fixed Windows nightly build failure (#31732) - wrote a patch for #31725 (mk localization did not work properly) - worked on missing pieces for #30429 - acat/sysrqb where are we with the reviews/fixups for #31010? Is there anything left from your side? - reviews (#24653, #26345, #30304, #31575) - double-checked our hardening flag situation for Windows and Linux bundles after toolchain updates; I think there a no surprises and unknown issues that popped up - caught up with blog comments (having 4 active blog posts to take care of in parallel is harder than thought :) ) This week: - stack smashing protection for Windows binaries (#29013) - #31597 (Mozilla bug review for bugs squashed between Firefox 61-68) - finish missing pieces for #30429 - maybe release for testing #30126 on alpha channel? we'd need #31702 for that which is supposed to apply cleanly for esr68 at least; apple is saying Catalina gets out in October so, we might have a bit more time here? - reviews mcs and brade: Last week: - Testing and research for #30126 (Make Tor Browser on macOS compatible with Apple's notarization). - Verified that #31464 is no longer an issue (meek and moat are broken on macOS 10.9). - Debugged #31607 (App menu items stop working). - On macOS, menu-related objects are being freed too soon or at the wrong time. - This is a strange issue that is proving to be difficult to debug. (GeKo: Do we know which patch is causing that? If not, could we track down this bug easier that way? mcs: We think it is not caused by a patch but by Tor Launcher opening a modal window during startup but we will confirm) This week/upcoming: - Continue work on #31607 (App menu items stop working). - #31491 (clean up the old meek http helper browser profiles). - Work on other tbb-9.0-must-alpha tickets if time permits. - Reminder: we will be on vacation next week. sysrqb: Last week: Mostly afk. Releases Began dog-fooding 9.0a6 This week: - Pick up #30943 again (only private tabs as the default) - Investigate auto-complete not working on 9.0a6 Android (#31720) - Maybe look at showing Tor Browser version number on Android (#30943) - Maybe help with getting x86_64 Android builds (#31192) _hc/eighthave: Last week: tor-android clean-up work, 64-bit builds and configure.ac --enable-android path tor-android reproducible build (given the same docker container) This week: Android-native TorService tjr: - Worked on the WASM patch but waiting on help: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1576254 - Landed the alloc/dealloc patch in 68: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1547519#c32 - There are a couple of concerning test failures for the MinGW build in the esr68 branch that might/are probably related to this. - I need to fix my IDA installation to be able to dig into these though... boklm: Last week: - Did some reviews: - #31450 (Still use GCC for 64bit Linux debug builds after switch to 68 ESR) - #31264 (tar.gz output files contain non-reproducible timestamps) - #31621 (Fix node bug that makes large writes to stdout fail) - #31641 (Provide link to Tor Browser for Android alpha on our alpha download page) - #31596 (Bump mingw-w64 version to pick up fix for #31567) - #31732 (Windows nightly build failure) - Made a patch for #31448 (gold and lld break linking 32bit Linux bundles we need to resort to bfd) - Opened #31755 (Separate update pings and update requests graphs for Tor Browser alpha and release users) - Looked at #31646 (Update abicheck to require newer libstdc++.so.6) This week: - Test patch for #31538 (Windows bundles based on ESR 68 are not built reproducibly) - Review #27493 ('mk_add_options' or 'export' MOZILLA_OFFICIAL) - Make patch for #31646 (Update abicheck to require newer libstdc++.so.6) - will be afk on Tuesday (tomorrow) acat: Last week: - #26345 - Finish Disable tracking protection UI in FF67-esr (in review) - Investigated if serviceworkers can still see localized msgs in #30683. - Investigated a bit RemoteSettings background requests: #31740 - Created Bugzilla ticket for #30683 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1581537) This week: - 31303: Browser Toolbox fails to open when tor-launcher is present V(is it fine if I take this one pospeselr?) - tbb-9.0-must-alpha tickets sisbell: Last Week: - #31564: Android bundles not reproducible - implemented solution using apktool.

Re: [tor-project] Mumble and Tails in Scripts

Rafael Bonifaz: > Hello, Hi Rafael, I'm answering on tails-dev(a)boum.org, which is the mailing list for Tails development. I put tor-project(a)lists.torproject.org in copy once, for the others to know that the discussion moved to tails-dev(a)boum.org :) > In CAD, the organization I work for, we created some simple scripts to > setup a Mumble server in Tails and published it as Onion Service.

Thanks for developing new ways of using Tails :) We've been looking into adding VoIP support to Tails for years but we don't have a proper solution yet, so experiments are always interesting! Funnily, we experimented a bit with Mumble as well ourselves. At some point, we even had internal Tails meetings over Mumble running from Tails. Since then we moved to non-Torified VoIP solutions because of the bad UX of Mumble (poor sound quality and complex + fragile audio setup). In 2016, we also had a GSoC project on something we called "Tails Server" and that included being able to run a Mumble server from Tails: https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/tails_server/ The future of Tails Server is now uncertain. We might resume the work on Mumble from Tails if we had good clues that it would be an important solution for many people. From our short experience internally, we have serious doubts that it would. But maybe your experience could help us in this regard. How was your solution received in Ecuador? Do you have any success stories of less tech-savvy people using it successfully? (I'm guessing that the timing of your email has to do with the recent political events in Ecuador.) If you are interested in improving and maintaining your scripts, it might be possible for us to replicate your instructions in the "Advanced topics" section of our doc, making them a bit more official, and have interested people download the scripts from there. It might give us a bit more information about how popular such a solution would be. Also, would you be interested if we mentioned your instructions in our monthly community report for October? See for example: https://tails.boum.org/news/report_2019_09/ Cheers, -- sajolida Tails — https://tails.boum.org/ UX · Fundraising · Technical Writing
