'''Fusion''' ('''F'''irefox '''USI'''ng '''ON'''ions) is a Mozilla's project to build the cutting-edge security and privacy features for Firefox users. <br>Fusion will leverage the technologies of the Tor Project, especially the ones in the Tor Browser and Tor Proxy, to bring more defense privacy options for users.
Fusion was initiated in 2018. Mozilla and [https://www.torproject.org/ the Tor Project] are working closely on this project.
= Background =
The Firefox Mozilla and the Tor Browser teams have collaborated for a Project are long -timecollaborators. In 2016, we started the [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Tor_Uplift Tor Uplift project] to take this collaboration to the next level, bringing Firefox and Tor Browser closer together than ever before.
The Tor Browser team builds [https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html Tor Browser] by taking [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/ Firefox ESR] and applying some patches to it. These changes add valuable privacy features for Tor Browser users. But having these changes means that every time the Tor Browser team wants to use a new version of Firefox, they have to update the patches to work with the new version. These updates take up a substantial fraction of the effort involved in producing Tor Browser.
= Project Vision =
Mozilla and the Tor Project are aligned with each other on the mission to protect user privacy on the Web.
* The fourth principle of [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/manifesto/ The Mozilla Manifesto] is '''"Individuals’ security and privacy on the Internet are fundamental and must not be treated as optional."'''
* One of the The Tor Project vision 's mission is '''"to advance human rights and freedoms by creating and deploying free and open anonymity and privacy technologies, supporting their unrestricted availability and use, and furthering their scientific and popular understanding."'''
We believe the collaboration between Mozilla and Tor can create a positive, significant impact on the world, and help users to regain their privacy.
