Questa è la prima versione stabile basata su Firefox ESR 91 e include un aggiornamento importante a Tor 0.4.6.8.

Novità

Tor Browser ha un nuovo aspetto

All'inizio dell'anno, l'interfaccia utente di Firefox è stata in gran parte ridisegnata con l'obiettivo di semplificare le finestre del browser, snellire i menu ed offrire un design delle schede tutto nuovo. Firefox ESR 91 introduce il nuovo design in Tor Browser per la prima volta.

Per assicurare la migliore esperienza, ogni parte di interfaccia personalizzata in Tor Browser è stata modernizzata per aderire al nuovo aspetto di Firefox. Ciò include ogni cosa, dall'aggiornamento delle basi come il colore, la tipografia e i pulsanti, al ridisegno di ogni nostra icona per corrispondere al nuovo stile più sottile.

Oltre alla finestra stessa del browser, la schermata di connessione, la finestra del circuito, i livelli di sicurezza e gli errori dei siti onion hanno tutti ricevuto una rinfrescata – ognuno con alcuni piccoli ma graditi miglioramenti.

Final deprecation of v2 onion services

Last year we announced that v2 onion services would be deprecated in late 2021, and since its 10.5 release Tor Browser has been busy warning users who visit v2 onion sites of their upcoming retirement. At long last, that day has finally come. Since updating to Tor 0.4.6.8 v2 onion services are no longer reachable in Tor Browser, and users will receive an “Invalid Onion Site Address” error instead.

Should you receive this error when attempting to visit a previously working v2 address, there is nothing wrong with your browser – instead, the issue lies with the site itself. If you wish, you can notify the onion site’s administrator about the problem and encourage them to upgrade to a v3 onion service as soon as possible.

It’s easy to tell if you still have any old v2 addresses saved in your bookmarks that are in need of removal or updating too: although both end in .onion, the more secure v3 addresses are 56 characters long compared to v2’s modest 16 character length.
