Tor’s anonymous and encrypted software is coming to Facebook’s Android app

For Facebook users worried about their security and privacy, help is coming to the Android app in the form of Tor support. The social network has announced a partnership with the Guardian Project, which creates the Orbot proxy for Android that is based in Tor’s encrypted software, making your location and usage completely untraceable.

It comes two years after Facebook created a Tor onion address for Web users, which allows users to connect securely over a Tor browser. Facebook claims that since it added Tor support, a sizable community has started using the encryption software, and they have been asking for additional platform support.

For those unaware, Tor is one of the most popular anonymous networks in the world. It directs Web traffic through an encrypted and random relay network provided by volunteers, which hides the user’s location, usage, and IP address, and makes it near impossible for surveillance to follow or decipher the traffic.

The Tor Project welcomes attacks on its software to see if anything can penetrate it, similar to Google’s stance on hacking its own services. The NSA managed to break through the program by targeting outdated Firefox browsers, but could not gain access to information from anyone who kept their browsers and other programs up to date.

It is quite easy to enable Tor on Facebook, but first you need to download the Orbot proxy app either from Google Play or the F-Droid repository. Then, go to the App Settings menu on Facebook and enable the Use Tor Via Orbot feature. Facebook plans to enhance its own Onion Service in the future and move away from Orbot, meaning in the future you might not have to download a proxy to use the Tor network on mobile devices.

Support for Tor on Android is still in an experimental stage, so expect some bumps along the way.

Android 12 with Material You launches today, hits Pixel phones in coming weeks
Google Pixel 6 Image Composite.

Google today made the final release of Android 12 source code available after a long beta-testing period, but it's important to note that it still won't roll out to the Pixels or other devices just yet. The new update will land first on older Pixels in the coming weeks, though it'll look best on the Google Pixel 6 when that releases later this month. This update comes with a large design overhaul known as Material You, and a bundle of privacy and security tweaks.

The biggest change is the company's new Material You design language. When the update rolls out, Pixel owners will find that their phone's interface will become a lot more attuned to their wallpaper choices thanks to Google's dynamic color theming system. These colors will apply to parts of the user interface, from the notification center and lock screen to even icons on the home screen and inside of apps that have been updated to support it. The company has also debuted new widgets to match Apple's after letting Android's widget system stagnate for a while. Several parts of the interface have also been redesigned to be larger and bubblier than they were on Android 11.

The best coupon apps for iOS and Android
the best coupon apps for ios and android retail me not app

Strategic shoppers often rely on coupons to help them save money on items they regularly buy or special items they plan to purchase. Coupon apps are a variation of the theme -- just like clipping coupons from your local newspaper. Typically, you'd use coupons for groceries, clothing, restaurants, concerts, amusement parks, or other services. Smartphone-based coupon apps, which are generally available free of charge from Apple's App Store or Google's Play Store, make it easy to cash in on discounts and offer numerous creative ways to save and collect. Coupon apps scan the web for deals and pass them to you via cash back, digital coupons, promo codes, or paper coupons and then let you save instantly or collect your rewards whenever you're ready.

Not all coupon apps operate the same way: Some require you to save or scan your receipt, others transform paper coupons into digital ones, while others give you a discount if you pay in advance for an item, and some combine several techniques that suit your shopping habits and preferences. We've picked out some of the most useful coupon apps available for iOS and Android.
