Description-en: configures and enhances various Mozilla birds for anonymity use
The TorBirdy extension configures Thunderbird (or Icedove, etc) to make
connections over the Tor anonymity network. It also takes steps to protect
anonymity at the application level by reducing unique identifiers, disabling
unsafe plugins, disabling insecure protocols, helpfully configuring other
software such as Enigmail and GnuPG in anonymity protecting ways and more. It
also helps to ease configuration with other anonymity networks and proxies such
as JonDos.
