Onion Browser Button - Add-On for TOR Proxy Browsing
"Onion Browser Button" is a Firefox add-on enabling users to easily connect and browse with the TOR network proxy in the browser. This unofficial extension is developed and maintained independently, having no connections or affiliations with the official Tor® project or website. Users must ensure connection to TOR before use and may need a separate patch for easy connection, available for download. Notably, the add-on requires "Run in Private Windows" setting enabled in Firefox.
