The way the text got moved around makes me suspect that some control ASCII characters were being used to navigate through all previous chats with this particular individual. The browser on my friend's end recovered eventually. It's possible (I have no way of proving) that my friend's unencrypted connection was the one targeted. But the question remains why. I suspect the attack was due to both using TOR and using an innocuous word that is a word used to describe something connected to TOR. 

The name is Tor, not TOR.
