FireTor
Opens a clean Firefox browser in Termux with a configured Tor proxy and modified user settings.
release date: 2024-12-29
about
The script from the FireTor repository is a Firefox launcher dedicated to Termux users with a configured graphical environment (such as Xfce4) running in VNC.
features
The script starts the Tor proxy and launches Firefox configured to use the Tor SOCKS proxy from the very beginning. In addition to routing through the Tor network, the script also modifies internal browser parameters so that websites visited by the user believe the connection is coming from a Windows 10 computer.
The script provides easy session, process, and IP address management directly from the command line. A logging system has also been implemented, allowing you to read standard outputs from Firefox and Tor for debugging potential issues.
After closing the browser or killing the Firefox or Tor PID, the script deletes the browser profile, leaving no trace of its use.

compatibility
The script works flawlessly across different Termux versions, with various Xfce4 builds, and different versions of Firefox.
The only requirement is to have a properly configured graphical environment — for example, a working TigerVNC server and Xfce4 session.
