BTW (OT), I'm a big fan of Dark Mode, and have been using Dark Reader for sometime, in WO and in many other sites. Actually discovered it from a post here in WO. I read (here in WO too) that this may be a security threat due to leaking site data, etc. Just visited Dark Reader's official site, and noticed that it's an open-source project, and very highly respected, which put my mind at rest somewhat...

What do you guys think? Would you consider Dark Reader a security threat. Any known cases?

Or should we start using Tor on a Linux Live DVD for all things Bitcoin?

Bitcoin's ever rising value makes us reconsider certain approaches to the way we do things...

I suppose this is fairly paranoid.  But I have come to believe that there will ALWAYS be something about my internet connected computers and phones that is a security threat.  I have basically given up on keeping these things secure.  Therefore hardware wallets and disconnected old laptops running Tails.  That said... I am an IT person.  The latter is not a trivial undertaking to do correctly.  And i figure many here could handle it... but we are elite in that regard.

Security and UX is STILL bitcoin's #1 and other #1 Achilles heel.

I work in IT too. I've always just used Tor Browser for most things Bitcoin. I'll need to look into Dark Reader but in my mind, it's probably something as simple as a CSS code to turn light into dark. (font colors and stuff like that.)
