>New Release: Tor Browser 14.0
>by duncan | October 22, 2024
>Tor Browser 14.0 is now available from the Tor Browser download page
>https://www.torproject.org/download/
>and our distribution directory.
>https://dist.torproject.org/torbrowser/14.0/
>This is our first stable release based on Firefox ESR 128, incorporating
>a year's worth of changes shipped upstream in Firefox. As part of this
>process we've also completed our annual ESR transition audit, where we
>reviewed and addressed over 200 Bugzilla issues for changes in Firefox
>that may negatively affect the privacy and security of Tor Browser users.
>Our final reports from this audit are now available in the tor-browser-
>spec repository on our Gitlab instance.
>Firefox's design also continues to evolve, and the ESR transition is our
>opportunity to update Tor Browser to reflect the most recent patterns and
>styles used in Firefox. For example, eagle-eyed Tor Browser users will
>notice updates to Tor Browser's typography that we've inherited from
>Firefox, including heavier headings and changes to line heights intended
>to improve font compatibility and accessibility.
>In addition to the ESR, we overcame many other technical challenges that
>you can read more about in Morgan's series of blog posts chronicling the
>team's progress with Tor Browser Alpha, including: unifying Tor Browser
>for Android's codebase into a monorepo, addressing reproducibility issues
>in our Android APK generation, reducing Android's APK size for x86 and
>x86_64 platforms, and changes to how we spoof Tor Browser's user agent,
>to name a few. This release also includes a series of improvements to the
>usability and compatibility of our fingerprinting protections without
>compromising their effectiveness, allowing us to enable useful features
>like picture-in-picture, screenshots and more.
