Excellent news!

...and I will use the description of Tor because it is the best I've seen. 
Who would be against Tor after reading this

''Tor is free software and an open network that helps internet users to
defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that
threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities
and relationships, and state security. It is used by hundreds of
thousands of daily users worldwide to secure their online communication,
avoid tracking, and circumvent censorship.

Tor protects users by bouncing communications around a distributed
network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents
somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you
visit, and it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical
location.

I stole it right from the torproject.org front page :-)

Thanks for all the flowers! I really want to involve the community more
in the whole thing. In short, we want to avoid that any single entity
runs both high bandwidth exit relays, and a larger number of bridges.

We need to find seven more organizations that are willing to rent
servers for a period of at least 2 years. Thanks to Digital Defenders,
we can provide the funding. Ideally, the organizations have their own
technical staff who we can teach how to maintain the bridge server, but
we can also do the whole administrative part. This isn't as bad as it
sounds, as we can over time find seven different people do to this who
likely know more about digital security (eg. use OpenPGP smartcards for
SSH authentication).

If you want to learn more, please join us for the Tor Relay Operators
meetup at 30c3:
