The only problem with that is limited levels of trust - e.g. if you have Tor support baked into your browser, you have to trust that the magic "Tor on" button isn't compromised.
This isn't a problem that just using Tor in an existing browser install is supposed to solve/be any better at, but it suddenly becomes an incredible target for any state actors/other large-scale entities who know they're going to want to suppress communication shortly.
- Spivak 10y agoTrue, but for casual users, simply being able to natively and transparently access .onion sites would be cool even if it didn't have the privacy of the Tor Browser Bundle.
- dredmorbius 10y agoThe increase in Tor traffic would also be hugely useful for users who do depend on Tor. That much more chaff for Eve to have to eliminate.
