I was under the impression that Tor did not allow for bookmarks due to privacy issues, but my version of Tor does. Am I operating with the correct version of Tor, or did I somehow get a fake version? Thanks.
what could be a fake version ? Do you have proof you get right tor in right site ?
Let me re-phrase my question. Does Tor now allow bookmarks? When I used Tor before, they never saved bookmarks, but now they do in the version I am using.
As far as the “fake version” is concerned, there are hackers out there who put out fakes of Tor for nefarious reasons, so since I noticed my Tor allows bookmarks when they never used to, I just wanted to check and see. I download Tor from the official site, so I am quite sure it is authentic. I am just not sure about the bookmarks part. Thank You.
I’d like to know also. I know there’s a way to see if the version you’re about to download is correct by verifying the signature, but I lack the skills to do that. I wonder what the likelihood of downloading an inauthentic version from the official Tor site is. I mean, is it like extremely unlikely (like less than 1%) or is the possibility dangerously high (like 25%)?
AFAIK, it was always possible to have bookmarks on Tor Browser.

I also heard from a Gus who told me that bookmarks were always available on Tor so I was mistaken. Thank you.
