Re: [Trisquel-users] Tor Browser Bundle: DRM deleted or not?

[dguthrie]

Tor Browser Bundle is configured so that you do not reveal your identity by  
mistake. It is very easy to do, most people have revealed their identity  
without knowing. You might think "these browsers are libre, they make me  
anonymous" but they still reveal things that are unique, like system fonts,  
screen orientation, unique browser text string identifier, operating system,  
etc. They may not connect through Tor correctly too.
It is not a warning you should take lightly. If you want Tor, use TorBB:

Or don't use it at all. Seriously, nefarious types watch Tor users, and  
revealing your identity can sometimes be very damaging. For example, someone  
set up a Tor exit node as an experiment, and picked up sensetive, unencrypted  
communications from governments and UN personelle. You might make a similar  
mistake. Who knows?
Use Tor Browser Bundle or don't use it at all.
