Tor descriptors à la carte: Tor Metrics Library 2.

From the post:

We’re often asked by researchers, users, and journalists for Tor network data. How can you find out how many people use the Tor network daily? How many relays make up the network? How many times has Tor Browser been downloaded in your country? In order to get to these answers from archived data, we have to continuously fetch, parse, and evaluate Tor descriptors. We do this with the Tor Metrics Library.

Today, the Tor Metrics Team is proud to announce major improvements and launch Tor Metrics Library version 2.0.0. These improvements, supported by a Mozilla Open Source Support (MOSS) “Mission Partners” award, enhance our ability to monitor the performance and stability of the Tor network.

Tutorials too! How very cool!

From the tutorials page:

“Tor metrics are the ammunition that lets Tor and other security advocates argue for a more private and secure Internet from a position of data, rather than just dogma or perspective.”
— Bruce Schneier (June 1, 2016

Rocks!

Encourage your family, friends, visitors to all use Tor. Consider an auto-updated display of Tor statistics to drive further use.

Relying on governments, vendors and interested others for security, is by definition, insecurity.
