Comment (by gk): Replying to [comment:1 tom]: > Hm. I haven't found this code yet. This is referring to the Windows Group Policy mechanism, and not the Firefox policy mechanism, right? Good question: I'd say, yes, but I am not sure as I don't know much about group policies. The report says "If a GPO policy tells Firefox to use system proxy setting" and says, that a specific key is written to the registry which seems to cause Tor Browser to ignore its own proxy settings. > I think we should wire up both to be ignored when MOZ_PROXY_BYPASS_PROTECTION is enabled Agreed. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/29916#comment:2> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
