Overall, the organization said that it attracted donations from 115 countries worldwide in 2018, which reflects its importance outside of the U.S. A large part of that is down to Tor ally Mozilla, which once again pledged to match donations in the closing months of the year, while an anonymous individual matched all new backers who pledged up to $20,000. The individual donation push represents an increase on the $400,000 it raised in 2017. In addition, recently released financial information shows it raised a record $4.13 million from all sources in 2017 thanks to a growth in non-U.S. The Tor Project - the organization behind the service which stands for “The Onion Router” - announced this week that it brought in a record $460,000 from individual donors in 2018.
Tor, the open-source initiative that provides a more secure way to access the internet, is continuing to diversify its funding away from its long-standing reliance on U.S.
