We love releasing new features and giving talks about where the Tor Network is going next. Still, it’s good to take stock every now and then, especially when we can share good news.nZB免费翻墙网
The Tor Metrics website provides all sorts of information about the Tor Network, including how fast the network is, or how many daily users it has. The Metrics team recently expanded the Metrics page with a Mozilla grant, strengthening the infrastructure used to collect data.nZB免费翻墙网
One of the things Tor Metrics measures is how many times Tor Browser has been downloaded, and we decided to investigate how the first six months of 2017 measures up to the same time last year. Data from Tor Metrics tells us there was a 1.4 million increase in the number of Tor Browser downloads in the first six months of this year, compared to the same period last year. In all, download numbers increased from 16.1 million to 17.5 million.nZB免费翻墙网
The more Tor, the better
More Tor is good for lots of reasons: it means that journalists, activists, and other privacy-conscious individuals are taking steps to evade internet censorship or stop websites from tracking them as they browse the web. An increase in the number of Tor Browser downloads could also be evidence of some new censorship event, when users circumvent internet censors to access online resources and communities.nZB免费翻墙网
Privacy protections rolled back by the US government in March gave ISPs free reign to collect and sell your private information. We’re delighted that more people are realizing that there’s an alternative to the pervasive tracking and surveillance that many websites, ISPs, and agencies carry out.nZB免费翻墙网
Tor makes every user look the same, and the diversity of our user base is part of what makes Tor strong. The more people who use the network, the better Tor’s anonymity.nZB免费翻墙网
Browser download numbers don’t tell us everything -- we have no way of knowing many of those downloads are repeat downloaders, or for how long they stay using Tor. Those would be privacy-invasive metrics, and we don’t gather such information. But we still think that this number is meaningful, and we’re glad to see it increasing.nZB免费翻墙网
As always, you can download Tor Browser here. Why not make the Tor Network stronger and faster for everyone by running a relay?nZB免费翻墙网

我们喜欢发布新功能，并谈谈Tor网络在哪里。不过，现在好起来，特别是当我们可以分享好消息的时候很好nZB免费翻墙网
Tor Metrics网站提供有关Tor网络的各种信息，包括网络速度有多快，或者有多少日常用户。 Metrics团队最近通过Mozilla授权扩展了Metrics页面，加强了用于收集数据的基础架构。nZB免费翻墙网

Tor Metrics措施之一是Tor浏览器已经下载了多少次，我们决定调查去年的前六个月如何衡量去年同期。来自Tor Metrics的数据告诉我们，与去年同期相比，今年前六个月Tor浏览器下载次数增加了140万个。总的来说，下载次数从1610万增加到1750万。nZB免费翻墙网
Tor越多越好nZB免费翻墙网

更多的Tor有很多原因：这意味着记者，活动家和其他有隐私意识的人正在采取措施来规避互联网审查，或者阻止网站在浏览网页时对其进行跟踪。 Tor浏览器下载次数的增加也可能是一些新的审查事件的证据，当用户规避互联网审查员访问在线资源和社区时。nZB免费翻墙网

3月份美国政府撤回的隐私保护措施让互联网服务供应商免费统计收集和出售您的私人信息。我们很高兴更多的人意识到，除了许多网站，ISP和机构进行的广泛的跟踪和监视之外，还有一个替代方案。nZB免费翻墙网

Tor使每个用户看起来一样，并且我们的用户群的多样性是Tor强大的一部分。使用网络的人越多，Tor的匿名性就越好。nZB免费翻墙网

浏览器下载的数字不会告诉我们所有的东西 - 我们无法知道这些下载中的许多是重复下载的，或者他们停留多长时间使用Tor。这些将是隐私侵入性的指标，我们不收集这些信息。但我们仍然认为这个数字是有意义的，我们很高兴看到它增加。nZB免费翻墙网
和往常一样，您可以在这里下载Tor浏览器。为什么不通过运行中继使Tor网络更加强大和快速地为每个人？nZB免费翻墙网
