I like to use Tor for everything except streaming videos. But I have it setup with a few add-ons to make it a more pleasant browsing experience. I know it increases fingerprintability, so I wanted to know in case you use Tor browser on a regular basis, do you use any extensions? Do you feel the trade-off in privacy is worth it?
I think using any additional stuff with Tor make’s it lose the point of it’s existence
I wouldn’t say that. It can reduce tor’s effectiveness at preventing a site from knowing that your two visits at different times were actually the same person, but that isn’t the only point of its existence.
Even if you made your browser totally unique, eg by changing your user agent to a unique string, Tor browser would still prevent websites from determining your physical location (assuming that they couldn’t observe your network traffic entering the tor network and correlate it).
(So would a VPN, but, then you would have a single point that knows your current IP and every IP you communicate with.)
