The table pointing associating clearnet domains with .onion addresses is

this kind of thing? Could this grow into a community maintained database?

A Firefox add-on to help TOR users find hidden services for ClearNet
sites they use every day.

Often, I tell people of Facebook's hidden service
<http://arstechnica.com/security/2014/10/facebook-offers-hidden-service-to-tor-users/>
only to hear they didn't know. It's been around since 2014, offering TOR
users additional security, compared to the Clearnet.

The most recent encounter with someone who actively used TOR for their
daily activities had me think, "what if Firefox could tell you when a
site you're using has a hidden service, even if you're stuck behind a
Cloudflare Captcha?".

And thus, this extension was born. When you visit a site such as
LiteVault.net <https://www.litevault.net> or Facebook.com, the extension
will inform you that you should be using the hidden service, with a
direct link to it.

To add a new domain, simply fork the repo, add it to |data/urls.txt| at
the bottom of the list, and submit a pull request. It will be added ASAP.

The format is: TITLE URL-PATTERN ONION-URL

We only support the EXACT and WILDCARD matches in the URL Pattern

Quick question on the Facebook Onion Service. You said that some people say they didn't know about the onion servie for Facebook? Does Facebook show a notice (or couldn't they auto redirect) about the Onion Service whenever you login through Tor? That would definally imporve awareness. Also the plugin could become community updated over time. Maybe at some point the Tor Project could even fork the plugin (if open source) and build similar support into Tor Browser itself.
