Comment:

 Replying to [comment:4 arma]:
 > boklm, what's the current state of our "submit new tor browser releases
 to the antivirus companies so they aren't surprised when we release"
 plans? Do we auto submit stuff to virustotal? Does that autosubmit reach
 everybody, or are there places like Webroot that aren't reached?

 We don't do it yet but have a ticket for it: #28175. That said, I don't
 think Webroot is not much of a problem nowadays from what I've seen over
 the last months and years in our blog comments and elsewhere. Closing this
 ticket for now. We should open a new one in case we get newer evidence
 that Webroot is still problematic.
