Using Orfox, I was reading about Orbot and there was a link to the settings to use in Apps to allow them to be directed through Tor. When I click on the link, there is a short redirect message and then I am brought back to the same guardian project page that discusses Orbot. I even tried copying and pasting the link directly into the Orfox address bar and it still redirected me back to the guardian project page about Orbot. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or if Orfox has a setting that I don't know about. How do I get to that link using Orfox? How do I make it stop redirecting me back to the page that shows the link?

hello drtmb,

Orfox is based on a build from the Gecko engine but is not built/maintained by mozilla. It also is going to be shut down somewhere early this year. and it is recommended by the guardian project that you switch over to Torbrowser Alpha
