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.
