    EDIT: Upon further inspection, it looks like a renamed Tor bundle, minus various anonymity functions.

    Well, for starters, it's not for privacy but for circumventing censorship. The Tor Browser Bundle does the same thing, but with a heightened level of anonymity. I do like the foxyproxy add-on as it may be easier to chain proxies before connecting to the Tor network, something that requires a bit of configuration with the TBB. I'd be a bit concerned about this being malicious (botnet or something), considering there is nothing on the site except the first page.. no licensing or anything.

    Also, there was an exploit in a recent version of the Tor Browser Bundle and since this is clearly based off of TBB, I'm wondering if the version they used is pre or post exploit.


    I'm rusty on terminology; but

    tl;dr the Tor Browser Bundle would accomplish everything this does, only better.
