Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I see the same problem. > This problem doesn't appear in Archlinux or GNU/Debian so it seems > that bug is Guix related. Interesting. Which version of Debian did you test with, and how did you install the Firefox that you used for testing this? I found this same problem with Firefox ESR 68.9 running on a stock Debian 9 (stretch, a.k.a. oldstable) system, using Debian's 'firefox-esr' package, after installing the extension via addons.mozilla.org, specifically version 0.1.8 of the "Onion Browser Button by Benthum", available here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tortm-browser-button/ Moreover, I found that even if Tor is not running at all, and nothing is listening on port 9050, the extension still reports that it's "checking tor proxy connection..." and then "TOR is running. Connected to 127.0.0.1:9050", which is false on both counts. I filed a bug report upstream. I've removed this extension from Guix's IceCat package for now, pending further investigation, commit 416439263cb295260ba38ab1cce5b4468ae5691e. Thanks, Mark
