Features & Capabilities

Browse with Onion is a lightweight Chrome extension that enables users to browse specific websites through the Tor (onion) network, enhancing privacy and security. Unlike full-browser Tor solutions, this add-on only routes selected domains through Tor, keeping other traffic unaffected. Users must be connected to the Tor network separately using the provided patch available on GitHub.

To use, add desired domains to the extension's toolbar popup using a comma-separated list with wildcard asterisks (e.g., .torproject.org). Those listed domains will then pass through the Tor network, ensuring anonymous browsing for sensitive sites. For full-browser Tor proxy, a separate add-on is recommended. The extension is ideal for users seeking to selectively route traffic for privacy without global Tor usage.

Is Browse with Onion Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Browse with Onion requires very minimum permissions.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Browse with Onion is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
