- Rated 1 out of 5by user2859025, a year agoFollowed the instructions down to a T, still doesn't establish a a connection to Tor. Completely useless add-on.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17314060, 3 years agoFollowed _exactly_the install instructions given and ended up with a full re-install of FF 0.97 to get my browser working again.
did the following:
0. installed this addon
1. Download “Tor Bundle” and extract it in a local directory (https://github.com/andy-portmen/tor-bundle/releases). Put it into ~/.tor-bundle
2. put userdir/.tor-bundle into the options page text box and saved
3. downloaded the native client from https://github.com/andy-portmen/native-client/releases and installed it into ~/.tor-client and then ran ./install.sh script
4. browser console appeared on my gui (fedora 35 + gnome 41) and started spewing massive amounts of errors:
stderr output from native app com.add0n.node: node:events:498
stderr output from native app com.add0n.node: throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

again and again and again!
5. onion button cannot be switched off / tabs start timing out!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13427842, 7 years agoFollowed online tutorial, does not work. Followed the video online does not work. I have worked in cyber security for over 15 years and have written several securtiy tools, found several security vulnerabilities for large organizations....just saying. Either there is something wrong with this setup....or I am having a really really really bad day. JUst saying....much easier way out there to use the TOR.....this way will only frustrate you and annoy you. Take the path of least resistance...this path leads no-where.
