After all, you can just use the Tor browser bundle inside Liberte etc. Nonetheless, it's a bit unsettling. Does anybody else have anything to add?As far as I know, they are talking about wget as run from the command line -- not the wget download manager for Midori specifically.I think they are the same wget utility. e.g. it's like how ftp is an independent program from your browser, yeah all the browsers use it to download binaries, but it can also be used solo to download files manually. It's an old unix concept, you compartmentalize functionality, and then you get to use it across a whole range of programs as a building block.Some of what is being said on the thread is foreign to me, not being a Tor expert and all, but if some version of wget leaks DNS requests, then it very probably does so for all platforms that version of wget is used on. e.g. other Linux distros that provide the wget utility for programs to use.Until more is known, sticking to the Tor bundle is probably a good idea since the bundle is fully torified. I'll ask kmf about this DNS leaking issue with wget, I'm sure he'll have some idea of how to best approach the problem, maybe cast some more light on the topic.
