[tor-talk] How to disable Tor Browser's Internal Updater?

[Patrick Schleizer]

Hi,

since updates downloaded by Tor Browser's Internal Updater [1] [2] are
unverified [3] we at Whonix project [4] are wondering [5] how to disable it.

Especially since updates are downloaded over Tor in case of Whonix.

Ideally, is there some way to disable it without recompiling / forking TBB?

Cheers,
Patrick
