Both statements are factual and true. I realize now that you're sorely lacking when it comes to comprehending the technical aspects of things, so I won't bother trying to explain them to you in that regard. I absolutely will point out the fact that you're a dishonest asswipe for not including the context of a typical installation though... "Your original packets are encrypted multiple times before they ever leave your machine (assuming a typical setup here)." Message-ID: <hin4sk$9ro$3(a)news.eternal-september.org>. Not to mention the fact that I already explained my words in greater detail, in the message you just replied to... "This is basically meaningless in practice because in most cases your running instance of Tor is on the same machine as your browser or other "Torified" client, but it's not *always* the case." You see, unlike you I don't have to cower behind an X-No-Archive header in order to try and deny what I've said. I stand behind what I write, and it stands behind me. Even when liars like you try to rewrite it. :) I also realize now that you're insufferably immature while hiding behind your keyboard. Not only can't you simply admit your mistakes, you seem to go on a rampage against anyone who calls you on them. No matter how petty and ridiculous you become. For showing that side of yourself so early on I thank you. It will save me a lot of time down the road. No need to try and help you, I'll just mop up your ASCII messes when they have tangible consequences, and move on.

Hummingbird is so confused at this point he doesn't even understand that the word "bundle" denotes the packaging of two or more individual things into a convenient distribution. That if there were actually a standalone "Tor Browser" there would be absolutely no reason to bundle it with anything. And as ironic as it is, the very name of this "bundle" actually calls out the two main, *separate* applications contained therein... Tor, and a browser. You'd think that would make things clear for even the slowest kid on the small bus, but.... :(

So once again, you're wrong. > And it remains a fact that there IS a Tor browser. Nope. There's Tor, and a browser, bundled together for convenience. It doesn't make them the same application. That much is obvious to anyone who isn't mindless enough to rely solely on marketing nomenclature. .... |
