The Tor Project, the research-education nonprofit organization that maintains software for the Tor anonymity network, has announced a membership program to secure funding that will allow them to "Be more agile" when it comes to software development.

"Because we are a software development organization, relying only on grant funding, forces us into a development model that is slow and archaic. We can never execute solutions immediately in an agile way or experiment quickly with possible paths. We want to change that so we can respond to issues and start projects faster. And we can do that by increasing the number and amount of unrestricted contributions to the Tor Project."

Able to contact the Tor Project team directly for support or consultation.

Be invited to webinars and meetings with the Tor Project team to learn about future plans.

The Tor Project was founded in December 2006 and has been funded by a variety of organizations in the intervening years: the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the Human Rights Watch, the University of Cambridge, Google, DuckDuckGo, Mozilla, and many others.
