Tor Browser overview

Using Tor Browser you can protect yourself against tracking, surveillance, and censorship.

Tor was originally designed, implemented, and deployed as a third-generation onion-routing project of the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. It was originally developed with the U.S. Navy in mind, for the primary purpose of protecting government communications. Today, it is used every day for a wide variety of purposes by normal people, the military, journalists, law-enforcement officers, activists, and many others.

Version: 11.5.7
What's going on with the numbering? v11.5.6 insists it's up-to-date. When I attempt to install 11.5.7, macOS insists that 11.5.6 is the NEWER version. Doing a Get Info on 11.5.7, it appears that someone screwed up the date listings inside the app back to 1999 and 2000. That's flummoxing the auto-updater inside the app. IOW: It's a coding blunder. What to do? You decide. Hopefully, they'll fix up the blunder ASAP.

v10.0.8 is out, BUT! Do not bother downloading it!!! The DMG is NOT a DMG. Instead it's a ISO 9660 (Rockridge) optical disk formatted volume which macOS will mount but will NOT OPEN. That makes the thing worthless. Some dummy over at the project will have to clean up their mess. Watch for 10.0.9!

I have used Tor Browser over the past couple of years! A relative of mine suggested it to me and was a former FBI agent. No hassle, no ads, just a clean way to browse! My only concern is that it is somewhat slower than some browsers, but if someone wants a great way to browse without all the hassle, Tor Browser is it!

There's a MAJOR security flaw in versions previous to 8.0.3. So be sure to UPDATE! "Tor Browser Has a Flaw That Governments May Have Exploited" https://www.pcmag.com/news/363656/tor-browser-has-a-flaw-that-governments-may-have-exploited ***Don't take Tor Browser security for granted. It has been regularly hacked and is NOT perfect security protection on the Internet. It's BETTER security on the Internet, with of course a cost of speed depending upon what you're doing. [IOW: It is not heresy to point out that Tor Browser can be insecure. Zealots: Deal with it. Stop pretending.]

If you're running into a version 7.0.7 bug that stalls and times out the opening of the installer, you are not alone. The workaround is to update Tor Browser from within the application. Go to the menu bar, click on "Tor Browser" then "About Tor Browser". The app should immediately start downloading and updating itself to version 7.0.7, successfully.

Version: 7.0.7
Today's 7.0.7 update appears on MacUpdate, yet the link on the TOR site is still for 7.0.6. The new version does download from <https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/7.0.7/TorBrowser-7.0.7-osx64_en-US.dmg> BUT, it reports TOR is out of date, and checking for updates returns No Update Available!

Really, this is not the order in which to release an update. Get it working on your OWN website before a third-party site publishes its release. Whose snafu is this?
