 I use a custom HTTPS Everywhere ruleset to automatically redirect to tor
 onion services, however it apparently breaks the Tor Browser Updater with
 this error: Update XML file malformed (200)

 Whether this is a bug on my part or not, updating Tor Browser over onion
 services by default should be considered as an enhancement.
