# The meta/tor-browser port

## tor-browser-6.5 – Tor Browser meta package

## Description

    Tor Browser (TB) is a modified version of Mozilla's Firefox Extended
    Service Release customized for web browsing over the Tor anonymity
    network. In addition to obscuring the client's IP address, TB also
    mitigates browser fingerprinting attacks and patches the Mozilla code
    in other ways to prevent privacy leaks.

    Tor Browser includes the patched version of Firefox ESR and four
    Firefox add-ons:

    * torbutton: an add-on from the Tor project that provides a configuration
      GUI in the browser (the onion button);
    * tor-launcher: another add-on from the Tor project that allows Tor
      Browser to control and interface with a private instance of the tor
      daemon used by Tor Browser;
    * noscript: a well-known add-on for Firefox that allows flexible blocking
      of JS.  The version in the Tor Browser ports is specifically configured
      for use in Tor Browser by the Tor project and is not for use with other
      Mozilla-based browsers;
    * https-everywhere: an add-on for Firefox from EFF that attempts to turn
      http:// requests into https:// requests wherever possible.  Like noscript,
      the verison in the Tor Browser ports is specifically configured for use
      in Tor Browser.
