Tor Browser Port to Pandora?


Nice, can you post a link to the help file from the repo regarding turning off javascript and any other recommendations for anonymity with Firefox 29 in pandora repo?
My Tor router comes with a help file (it's under XFCE menu->Documentation), you can start by reading that.

When I searched for tor using pndmanager, your router didn't come up
Thanks for the tip, I will look into it. repo.openpandora.org does find my router with 'tor' search string.

By the way, I notice it works when you set it to HTTP proxy but not SOCKS? Just curious why?
Firefox issue. Qupzilla works fine either way.

And what about https? Say you what to completely hide your google searches, you could, in theory  use https://google.com then your entire path from link to link (including exit node traffic) is encrypted, am I right?
You're right. But since tor already encrypts the traffic between your computer and the exit node, the only benefit of using HTTPS is to protect the exit nodes you happen to use from curious providers. On the contrary, using a very specific SSL/TLS library (e.g. very old one) may worsen your anonymity since the server will know you don't use mainstream OS.
