ALPHA TESTERS WANTED: Tor Browser sees hundreds of changes every year, from updates to its Firefox base to new features for protecting at-risk users. Each update can introduce bugs–that’s where you come in. By becoming an alpha tester, you can help identify issues and shape new features, making Tor Browser more stable for millions worldwide. Just remember, the alpha version is unstable, so use it only for testing, not for sensitive activities. 🟢🔗 https://blog.torproject.org/new-alpha-release-tor-browser-140a7/
