Comment (by michael):
Dan Witte writes in [1] that 'Logging in (huffingtonpos.com) with Connect
works fine', but unfortunately the current state of tor-browser +
msvb3246-306bbfd_a1.patch (the rebased Dan Witte patch) does not confirm
this. After applying the patch, building, running firefox(1), logging in
to the Facebook, browsing to a huffingtonpost.com page and clicking the
'Comment' button of the 'Add a comment...' Facebook widget at the bottom,
nothing happens.
The cookie logic does seem to work on internal Facebook domain sites [2].
However, in this case the same results are obtained whther applying the
patch or not. Even more bizarre, once the comment is accepted, viewing the
page from another HTTP session fails to include the comment.
Also, Disqus sites work just fine with or without the rebased patch. It is
assumed that a 2012 API change caused this overall success.
