The Onion Report

Presented at The Eleventh HOPE (2016), July 22, 2016, 4 p.m. (60 minutes).

The Tor community, network, and ecosystem are growing and evolving at a very fast pace - from new secure applications using Tor to deploying relays in public libraries around the world. Tor as a project, but first and foremost as a large community, is at the forefront of technical, social, economical, political, and cultural battles pertaining to anonymity and basic human rights. This talk will cover the state of Tor on all levels: organizational, community, and technical. Recent and upcoming software developments, movement in onion (aka hidden) services land, attacks on the network and how we are fighting back, community projects, and much more will be covered. This is not about the Dark Web but rather about a Secure Web (copyleft pending).
