Comment on Onion Browser (iOS Tor web browser, open source) now available in the App Storeparent

Comments

There’s another one (Covert Browser) that’s been in the store since November that’s got a few issues (lack of cookie support, lack of POST support) that render a lot of websites useless.

Generally I don’t think this is (on the face) any worse than a regular third-party browser app: Other apps (games are a great example) are free to implement custom communication protocols and there are plenty of unsavory / underground / illicit websites on the regular internet. Tor has a lot of legitimate and illegitimate uses, but that can pretty much be said of web-based communication in general.

Just chiming in to say nice work Mike, and that it's nice to see another former Plus-One'r around these parts =)
