Nice, I see it has a small footprint :)
I do prefer squid, despite the larger footprint, due to the overall usability.
Still, it sucks to have to use iptables... So I hope Jolla will fix those proxy settings to actually work

Yeah iptables may get messed up :D

I liked the idea, but I've uninstalled it, it takes to much speed of my 4G subscription. A option to switch it on and off would be needd, just like the N900 version.

Further love your work NielDK!

Try proxychains which redirects the traffic of a single app (e.g. the browser) to Tor. You may modify the .desktop file in /usr/share/applications to create a launcher icon to launch the app 'proxified'. I used this trick in N9 where there was no iptables available.

Added the ability to start/stop tor by pressing the tor desktop icon.

The desktop icon will change colour red=stopped and green=started according to status.

Please UN-INSTALL an previous versions before installing version 0.2.4.21-2, also the unstable alpha-version !

Thanks goes to Schurmann
for his help in creating this switch

Update to v 0.2.4.23 to mitigate early relay attack

Please UN-INSTALL an previous versions before installing version 0.2.4.23-2, also the unstable alpha-version !

Well, well, here is a reason not to use tor browser bundle (and to update my tor if you didnt yet)

It works great but everyone please note that installing this and using the default sailfish browser will not give you the same level of anonymity or censorship circumvention of the Tor Browser Bundle on a typical desktop machine. This is because DNS will still be working as usual - not through tor. If you attempt to browse to example.org then you will be telling that to your DNS provider (typically your ISP). In addition this means you can't access .onion sites by default.

Perhaps it would be a good idea for this tor package to set up TorDNS[1], potentially changing /etc/resolv.conf to point to it.

oh, but no my friend. It was exploiding a Firefox vulnerability in older installations of torbrowser, while the article mentions windows hostname, this also applies to *nix firefox (torbrowser) versions.
