Easy html5 streaming support in Tor Browser Bundle

Here's what we promised: "The Tor Project will design and implement improvements to allow Torbutton and/or the Tor Browser Bundle to allow users to stream native HTML5 video media which doesn’t require special plugins or Adobe Flash technology. We have developed prototype support for the HTML5 video streaming used by Youtube, Vimeo, and other popular video websites."

The concrete deliverable (which shouldn't limit what we do, but also shouldn't be skipped entirely) is that Tor will "provide a detailed written report with its design to improve Torbutton to provide additional application layer security and improved streaming media support for Tor Browser Bundle users." by, if I have my math correct, May 2013.

This project is intended to be a catch-all "security and privacy improvements to TBB" with a focus on making sure html5, and whatever other streaming media we can handle, get enough attention.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
