Comment (by dcf):
SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG, in my experience, often happens when you try
to talk TLS to a non-TLS port. You'll see it, for example, when you go to
https://www.example.com:80/ (TLS to port 80 instead of port 443).
Maybe this site has a bug in its load balancer, or something like that,
such that TLS gets directed to a plaintext port somewhere on the backend.
It's weird that it only happens when you access from Tor, but maybe they
had a special rule for Tor and they didn't update it when they updated
something else.
