I can't believe this but I am worried about this.
Is it true?
Short answer is no, if you don't change a bunch of default settings in
TBB, or don't use addons / plugins (that just happen) to be ones that
COULD leak your identity. ONE of the ways that MIGHT happen is if an
addon you install doesn't use the Tor network / proxy (port that Tor
uses) & bypasses Tor to connect to internet.
The NoScript addon included in TBB (w/ settings that Tor devs believe
are "safe") - does allow JS, because many pages would partly or totally
not work w/o it. But NS has many other safety features that prevent
MISuse of JS, and many other features.
