% To explain the paper's contribution we can simply break down the title:
% privacy-preserving and incrementally deployable support for Certificate
% Transparency in Tor.
%
% To make a long story short, Tor Browser does not support Certificate
% Transparency. The reason why you want to do that is because it makes it
% possible to detect if visited websites are being impersonated or not.
%
% For example, an attacker may want to impersonate a website to steal a
% user's credit card number. It is also helpful to de-anonymize a Tor user.
%
% So, our work focus on adding support for Certificate Transparency in Tor
% Browser. We do that while focusing on two key properties.
%
% The proposed solution should be _privacy-preserving_. We achieve this
% because of and how we use Tor.
%
% The proposed solution should also be incrementally-deployable, and in the
% end have a stronger threat model than current Certificate Transparency
% deployments in Chrome and Safari that trust so-called CT logs blindly.
%
% In more detail, our incrementally-deployable design goes from:
% pairs of CT logs that are trusted blindly, to
% at least one CT log is trusted blindly, to
% no CT log that is trusted blindly.
%
% It is fair to say that we have a strong threat model where the attacker
% even has a zero-day exploit against Tor Browser. In spite of this very
% strong threat model, the involved performance overhead is modest.
%
