Comment:

 Replying to [comment:6 dscale]:

 Are you checking Onion sites? It seems to work perfectly fine on regular
 sites. But on Onions sites it never works. Is that how it is supposed to
 be?

 Yes, dscale, that is how onion sites are supposed to work.

 The third relay in your path to an onion site is not an exit. All of your
 traffic to an onion site stays within the Tor network.

 Onion sites have always worked this way, but Tor Browser has only recently
 started showing the paths to onion sites.

 gk, I 'm not sure if there is anything we can do to make this clearer in
 TorButton, Tor Browser, or in the documentation. Do you have any ideas?
