Hi Rob,You do know TBB's defaults regarding scripts, right? If it's a
conundrum with no easy answer for Tor devs, it's a conundrum for Facebook as
well. So please do get on Tor Talk list and criticise TBB for having an
"(advised)" yet non-default setting for blocking all scripts.
I understand the conundrum, and I agree that there isn't an easy answer, but
that default setting in TBB is batshit insane. It is _the_ source of the
conundrum. If script-blocking were turned on by default Facebook wouldn't even
waste time trying to design a hidden service like this.

I tried to login (with a fake account I maintain for just such a purpose).
"Your account is temporarily locked," it says. I get that; it appears I'm
trying to login from a strange location.
To proceed, I have to ID pictures of friends. Ok, I say. But the
page with friends' photos doesn't load, probably because I have
Javascript off (common practice with the Tor Browser). Fail.
Let's say people take this seriously -- to do so, they will have
to use Javascript, which is a bad move when using Tor.
It seems to me that this would just inculcate bad security habits
for any would-be Dark Web users.
