I hope this isn't true? If it is -- that is, if Tor Browser on that platform is willing to find and use the flash plugin -- please submit a bug report with enough details for the Tor Browser folks to reproduce the issue. Especially be sure to tell us which version of Tor Browser you're using. > >, but not in in 15.04.

Flash is bad news for your privacy, so Tor Browser takes many different steps to make sure it isn't found, doesn't work even if it is found, etc. (And it's not just privacy -- Flash is a mess in terms of code security too.) > For Windows there is no problem at all.

Yeah, don't do this -- Tor Browser will work hard to not run it even if you stick it in that directory. --Roger -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
