Comment (by sukhbir):
Updates:
- Automatic fetching was not disabled and the value was hard coded. So we
needed an overlay which I pushed in 0968621f.
- HTML has also been disabled. The options are similar to the mailnews
settings. See 174cd10.
- JavaScript disabled: already doing it.
- Proxy settings respected: yes.
I think the only concern I have now is that clicking the "Website" (in the
message pane) to get the complete article shows the Launch Application
window using which a user may choose a browser that is not Tor Browser.
Now we can do either of the following:
- Disable the link so that a user has to manually copy it and doesn't
inadvertently click on it
- Warn the user but then show the Launch Application and let them decide.
- Be smart and open in Tor Browser. (I am not sure if this one is easy).
