[tor-talk] using themes in Aurora

[Joe Btfsplk <joebtfsplk@xxxxxxx>]

Using addons, plugins, etc. of ALL sorts is a touchy subject regarding 
Tor & anonymity.  I'm wondering about use of Firefox themes & addons 
like Tab Mix Plus?  Any thoughts on the topic?

I give the native theme in Aurora / Firefox (7) low marks for usability, 
including overall tabs functions / features - (nothing to do w/ Tor 
developers).  It's difficult going back & forth from Aurora to Firefox 
once I am used to a theme in vanilla FF providing better usability & 
visibility - esp. if you don't have 25 yr old eyes.

AFAIK, themes & addons that simply change the GUI & don't send / receive 
any info or contact sites, aren't a threat to Tor's anonymity?  Tor 
controls to allow / don't allow updates, anyway.

So, I'm guessing themes / addons that don't "phone home" aren't a 
problem w/ Tor, but need to verify this.  Thanks.
