The TOR browser doesn't seem secure. has anyone here taken a close look at this?

The noscript version they're using pretends to block all scripts, but it's clearly allowing shitloads of them and I cannot change what it's doing. I cannot even uninstall it and reinstall from the firefox add-ons store.

Also, I read that they didn't include unlock because they wanted to let all that garbage traffic through. They were gaslighting consumers into thinking it made for a more consistent experience across the browser, which is a fake and gay reason.

I think they do have the high level webrtc security hole plugged. And they block the canvas loading.

What else ?

Do you mean uBlock Origin?

Tor is good at hiding your IP and anonymizing your browser. If there's a hole in that, that's what I'd be concerned about. I use it mainly to access dark web sites like Sci-Hub. As a day-to-day browser I can't be bothered.

Sci-Hub has plenty of clear net addresses.

I haven't been there in a while. I would use the .onion site because the clearnet domains would change around and/or be blocked. I figured .onion is the decentralized future. However, I just tried going to the Sci-Hub .onion site, and it no longer works :(

These still work. There’s a list of mirrors in the top left.

uninstall noscript and install umatrix

if you think ublock should also be installed install that as well, installing extensions works fine in tor as long as you are not retarded

Umatrix isn't available on mobile fyi

using mobile for anything worthwhile is for retards and faggots. If you want ublock origin on your shit phone then use orbot, then use fennec or mull with ublock origin, now you have ublock origin and a tor connection on your google os.

furthermore if you're mobile fagging state so in your post so the intelligent can ignore you

Oh shit, forgot about orbot. I even use that for certain apps right now lol. But I hate starting it.

As far as I am concerned TOR is completely compromised.

Because not only is it not secure, it's an LEO magnet that was developed by department of defence
