Tor Browser opsec discovery: The security level slider cannot be relied upon without a full browser restart: https://www.privacyguides.org/articles/2025/05/02/tor-security-slider-flaw/
If you frequently switch between security levels in Tor Browser (or Mullvad Browser!), make sure you are fully restarting the browser every time, otherwise you could still unexpectedly have dangerous JS features enabled!
This requirement is not publicly documented anywhere. Hopefully @torproject will add a prompt to restart after modifying this setting in a future Tor Browser release.
Hi @torproject can you see this toot?
if so, pls tell me, while working on something i appear to have found a problem with tor browser (possibly firefox! but i don't use ff), thanks.

Oh dear.
We just had a squiz at @protonmail's blog, over Tor of course, to see if he had posted it there.

Alas even ProtonMail's Tor onion site contains Cloud(G)lare trackers, in the form of images. As one scrolls down the page, #TorBrowser, with ***the highest safety settings***, fetches images from 'res.cloudinary.com' — another cloud(G)lare controlled entity.
Yikes.
Not a good look for a #privacy-espousing entity, right?
What is a good site, with a short URL where a layperson can go from no understanding of #Google's nasty #WebIntegrity proposal to full or functional understanding of how it threatens the #openWeb and which suggests Firefox-based browsers but **not** Firefox, eg. #Librewolf, IceCat, #TorBrowser, Pale Moon etc?
We will boost good responses, but not CloudFlare, Amazon or other #CAGEMAFIA websites.
This is a legit challenge.
Thx to @thelinuxexperiment for covering this troubling trend...
Also we've to normalize #EncryptEverything and using #TorBrowser as well as #Tails...

@fribbledom
UBlock is okay, but even better is #TorBrowser.
Just teach people to reduce trashy browser usage and use the Tor #Privacy Browser. If a site doesn't work in Tor it is trashy and not worth their time (incl. #banking sites).
Call or visit a branch and contact to your local Parliament Member if your bank doesn't fix it (while switching #banks).
We should not need to install a #proprietaryBrowser or give a bank our physical #location to do banking.
Brand *NEW* tutorial:
Start to finish (with many screenshots!)
How to install #privacy-redirect browser extension in Tor Browser AND then make it the most #anonymous setup possible:
How? continuously changing randomized Hidden Service ONLY front ends, for every automated redirect.
We install the working lists of onions I created.
I included many screenshots. Appreciate any shares. :)

@protonmail thank you for #onionavailable in mail login.
When the error of switching between applications #protonmail, #protoncalendar and #protoncontacts , in which the user is log out in the #torbrowser in beta.protonmail.com?
If you know my article about the SI-Onion-Service which basically allows to visit all my HTTP-based services via tor, you might wonder how to verify that it actually works, as it's a transparent connection upgrade?
I asked myself today as well and it turned out to become an interesting article.
