Isn't it already? My understanding is that nothing is stopping you from using the Tor service as a proxy for all your traffic. They just offer the Browser Bundle to make it dead simple for users. You could download their so-called "expert bundle" and use that to route any traffic you want.

- scrollaway 10y agoI think parent means natively supporting tor as a protocol in the browser. Eg another "incognito mode", and native support for the onion tld. It would indeed be cool.
- colejohnson66 10y agoThat's what I thought. The closest you can get to viewing onion URLs outside of Tor is a website like Tor2web[0]. The downside of these solutions is that you don't get the benefit of onion routing. [0]: https://www.tor2web.org/ https://www.tor2web.org/
