Hi, It's possible to use a debian/fedora based appVM with firefox, connected to sys-whonix, and all connections will go through tor. But whonix recommends to use a whonix-ws based appVM with tor browser instead to reduce fingerprintability. Most tor users are using tor browser, so if you're using tor with firefox and not tor browser it's easier to fingerprint you. I don't know if there are any other reasons why you would need to use whonix-ws instead of debian/fedora or if there's any reason not to use tor browser in a debian/fedora VM. But i like to use whonix-ws as a template for any VM that's going to connect to tor, and debian for other VMs. -- Jackie -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
