 Chromium is not a viable base for a privacy-preserving/privacy-focused
 browser. It is that simple. Brave is already trying this and they have
 numerous holes they must fill. If Brave successfully builds a privacy-
 preserving browser based on Chromium, then we may consider switching.
 However, Firefox remains the only viable base for Tor Browser at this
 time.
