The meta/tor-browser port
tor-browser-9.0.10 – Tor Browser meta package
Description
Tor Browser (TB) is a modified version of Mozilla's Firefox Extended
Service Release customized for web browsing over the Tor anonymity
network. In addition to obscuring the client's IP address, TB also
mitigates browser fingerprinting attacks and patches the Mozilla code
in other ways to prevent privacy leaks.
Tor Browser includes the patched version of Firefox ESR and four
Firefox add-ons:
* torbutton: an add-on from the Tor project that provides a configuration
GUI in the browser (the onion button);
* tor-launcher: another add-on from the Tor project that allows Tor
Browser to control and interface with a private instance of the tor
daemon used by Tor Browser;
* noscript: a well-known add-on for Firefox that allows flexible blocking
of JS. The version in the Tor Browser ports is specifically configured
for use in Tor Browser by the Tor project and is not for use with other
Mozilla-based browsers;
* https-everywhere: an add-on for Firefox from EFF that attempts to turn
http:// requests into https:// requests wherever possible. Like noscript,
the verison in the Tor Browser ports is specifically configured for use
in Tor Browser.
