Update Tor assets if they're older than the APK Extract the Tor binary, GeoIP database and config file from the APK if they haven't been extracted since the APK was last updated. On the Galaxy Nexus, skipping extraction of the binary if it's already up to date shaves about 1.5 seconds off the Tor plugin's startup time. Closes #582. Depends on !272. See merge request !273
Briar is a messaging app designed for activists, journalists, and anyone else who needs a safe, easy and robust way to communicate. Unlike traditional messaging tools such as email, Twitter or Telegram, Briar doesn't rely on a central server - messages are synchronized directly between the users' devices. If the Internet's down, Briar can sync via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, keeping the information flowing in a crisis. If the Internet's up, Briar can sync via the Tor network, protecting users and their relationships from surveillance.
