 Maybe now it's impossible to enable Flash in Tor browser and to use Tor
 combining other web browsers and softwares without Tor browser. It's very
 unconvenient for me, and maybe, for some others.

 I live in South Korea. The South Korean government blocks some websites
 such as websites related with porns, prostitution, gambling, illegal
 drugs, guns, pro-North Korean propaganda and so on. In this country,
 however, there's no law to punish people who accesss those websites
 bypassing the block list. Of course, if those do something illegal using
 those website, they'll punished by law, but access itself is not illegal.
 The government is just delaying and hindering it.

 So, for most of South Koreans, only bypassing the block list is needed and
 perfect anonymity isn't needed. Formerly, I used Tor enabling Flash and
 combining other softwares, but it looks impossible now.

 Of course, I know people in some countries need perfect anonymity and Tor
 combining other software is unsafe. For some others, current restrictions
 using Tor might be OVERPROTECTIVE.

 Please let users decide to take risks or not. I want to enable Flash in
 Tor Browser and use Tor combining other softwares :(
