Comment(by proper):

 I think most non-geek users are most happy "if there is one big button".
 Bonus points if it actually does what it promises. More bonus points if no
 effort and knowledge is required whatsoever.

 expect [...]

 Having lots of options may help your feeling, doesn't add something
 substantial to real security attributes. Tor and TBB and security is
 overrated by many people.

 If you want to audit it, you're most welcome. Sorry to say that it won't
 be as easy as checking some settings.
