You know how #RichardStallman #GNU laments #javascript but also how nothing works without it? https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html
Alright, so say you torsocks lynx ( #KU ) #ProjectGutenberg. Alternately, you could use highest security #TorBrowser with #noscript. But have you tried #Vanguards #Whonix GW with #vlc ? There is a lot that can be done with vlc for media that wouldn't work in a tor browser (netscape-plus) with vanguards. You would think that there is more anonymity because more people use the more popular #browser / #terminal -plus method but there are trade-offs with functionality and less data leaking. Is less data leaking a form of fingerprint? @mokancan
