Hi there,

(I've sent this to privacy@ and also CC'ed dev-identity@ lists. Apologies for the cross-posting.)

I have been lurking for the past few months on the Moz lists. Education through observation. :) I met some of your friendly and smart Moz-ollegues at the SOUPS conference last month and we had some great conversations.

Anyhoo, I came across this tweet from Brendan Eich randomly floating the idea of Moz adopting Tor as a plug-in.

"Maybe we should just adopt, support, and bundle Tor in Firefox..." [1]

It's early days, and just a comment on Twitter, but I wonder what others have to say.

Good or bad idea? I would say (without too much thinking): turned-off by default, but available. Exciting possibilities.

Thanks,
Bernard

For the benefit of this list... head on over to dev-privacy where
there's more discussion.
