Both, a starter for Tor Browser. Provides security hardening, integration with Debian, Whonix and Qubes.

Starter.

• Tor Browser Starter start menu entry and /usr/bin/torbrowser starter. Starts /home/user/.tb/tor-browser/start-tor-browser.

When config option tb_hardening=true is set or when using command line option --hardening, firejail will be used.

Uses open-link-confirmation if available.

Prompts to install the browser if not yet installed.

Changes directory into browser directly before startup.

Custom homepage support.

Qubes integration.

Sanity tests:

• Aborts if detected being run as root.
• Aborts in Qubes TemplateVM.
• Aborts in Qubes DVM Template.
• Waits for Qubes mount dirs and gui agent being ready.

In Qubes AppVM copies browser from root image to private image at first start.
