Top Pcmac Reviews

Initially, I was learning more than I imagined I was able to absorb!

By @DreadIron (Pcmac user)

Okay a delete and reinstall repaired functional it’s, sorry the app it’s a noble app by application. And, execution. Educational x10 too. Now, It fails on open << ever time since 11.5.2 >> if this is going to be a common theme at the AppStore then I trust there is going to be a Great Wave to come crashing in P/E as in recent days but the size is going to be tsunami and final. Not necessarily your fault their the app but an ignorance in business is just going to go the way it was imagined we have tort law and consumer protection and agencies to govern these and more than likely as in checkers there’ll be some jumping to Senate as opposed to judiciary digital media and the like laws updated and refined reflecting the standards for trade and brand new ones it’s not a dark day, it’s a a shining moment of truth coming to some and some won’t survive the day. Tough.
Appears genuine; be aware of iOS limitations

By A7 73 C9 (Pcmac user)

As far as I can research, this appears to be a genuine open source port of a tor-tunneled browser to iOS. There exists an article on Ars Technica, but more importantly, this app is linked as a recommendation on the Tor Project download page, as an alternative for iOS users. I suspect the reason it has not been fully adopted by the Tor Project, as an official Tor Browser Bundle, is due to certain unavoidable issues with iOS causing IP address leakage - the this app website currently lists an issue with iOS’ handling of OCSP, and WebRTC, both potentially leaking data outside of the Tor connexion. Perhaps we will have an alternative when iCEPA (Tor on iOS via VPN API) is completed. As far as more easily solvable problems go, I think it is worth mentioning that the default User Agent does not match that of the Firefox ESR branch as done by TBB; perhaps that is intentional, to reduce the fingerprinting uniqueness of a WebKit browser masquerading as a Gecko one, but I think this should have been explained to the user in the setting description. Also, the Global Settings option for “Privacy - open in Settings app” does nothing, merely switching to Settings, without opening a specific preference panel/pane.
A few issues

By 06Crazie (Pcmac user)

Seems to be stable and works well. Just a couple of issues and I’m sure it’s due to DUE (Dumb User Error). I cannot for lie life of me figure out how to close a window once it’s opened. I’m up to 12 pages now and still haven’t figured out how to delete any of them. The same goes with bookmarks. It automatically registers a bookmark first time I go to a side but cannot figure out how to manually (or otherwise) ald my own personalized bookmarks.
Best Tor browser for IOS

By TheLivingMan (Pcmac user)

I have used this browser in the past and it never met my expectations. I switched over to Or Net and lately I have been having issues with the latter, so I decided to switch back and give this another try and it is the best decision I’ve made. It’s the fastest tor browser I’ve used, faster than my laptop and it’s so simple and user friendly. I suggest you always use a bridge when browsing on the Tor and you should have no issues. I don’t easily trust my fellow men but this but after doing my research on this developer I can say his works prove him to be a trustworthy man who stands with and for the people. He’s not out to make profit. Thank you sir and peace be with you!
