 tor browser (latest version windows or mac) never works with recaptcha.
 EVER.  and cannot change new tab background from blaring WHITE. this is a
 BUG.  its extremely frustrating. I have to spend time registering and
 reporting this BUG.   I assume recaptcha doesnt work because the time of
 the circuits IP doesnt match the time on our system.  it needs some kind
 of fix...many sites are inaccessible because of this.  I complete the
 recaptcha perfectly and it just rejects and goes to the next one.  an
 endless loop of failed recaptchas. really STUPID!!   furthermore how does
 one change the background of new tab in tor from blaring white to black.
 this is easy to do in firefox, tors base browser, but cant figure it out
 in tor.  no extensions do it, dark theme. Nothing.  white shouldnt be the
 default it should be black - less eye damage to millions of people. cmon
 folks lets fix these issues.  they are long overdue.
