Tor on Android
,----[ Quote ]
| The Tor Project has been working very closely
| with Nathan Freitas and The Guardian Project
| to create an Android release. This is an early
| beta release and is not yet suitable for high
| security needs. The Android web browser is not
| protected by Torbutton and we have not yet
| developed an anonymous browser on the Android
| platform. Please be cautious with this
| release, it's probably pretty fragile and it's
| certainly not ready for serious use.

Google and the Tor Project
,----[ Quote ]
| When it comes to code, Google's support has
| made a big difference to the Tor Project.
| Providing privacy and helping to circumvent
| censorship online is a challenge that keeps
| our software developers and volunteers very
| busy. The Google Summer of Codeâ brings
| students and mentors in the open source
| community together to write code for three
| months every year. A lot of coding got done in
| a few months in 2009, and Tor was lucky to get
| a group of students who kept on working past
| the summer months to improve existing projects
| and support users. Tor also works on Libevent
| with Google.

Native C port of Tor for Android - Update
,----[ Quote ]
| Developer Nathan Freitas has announced that
| the native C Tor application has been
| successfully ported to Android, including an
| application that "installs, runs and
| provides the glue needed to make it useful
| to end users". The Onion Router, commonly
| referred to as Tor, is free software
| designed to provide internet anonymity to
| users while browsing online. It does this by
| bouncing the communications around a
| distributed network of relays run by
| volunteers from all around the world,
| preventing visited sites from learning a
| users physical location.

Tor anonymous network now has zero known bugs
,----[ Quote ]
| Coverity received funding from the Department of Homeland Security in 2006 as
| part of a three year project to analyse open source software for
| vulnerabilities, though at the time the focus was on Linux, the Apache web
| server, the Bind DNS server and Firefox.
