Tor Browser 6.0 is released

The Tor Browser Team has announcedthe release of Tor browser 6.0. This release brings the browserup-to-date with Firefox 45-ESR, which provides better support for HTML5video on Youtube, as well as a host of other improvements. DuckDuckGo isnow the default search engine. "Lately, we got a couple of comments on our blog and via email wondering why we are now using DuckDuckGo as the default search engine and not Disconnect anymore. Well, we still use Disconnect. But for a while now Disconnect has no access to Google search results anymore which we used in Tor Browser. Disconnect being more a meta search engine which allows users to choose between different search providers fell back to delivering Bing search results which were basically unacceptable quality-wise. While Disconnect is still trying to fix the situation we asked them to change the fallback to DuckDuckGo as their search results are strictly better than the ones Bing delivers."
