Hi JJ,

I don't know how long you've been at this, but I've been using Tor
seemingly for decades, so I'm fully aware of the sheer hell we used to go
through to "torify" our connections in the past (socks, tor, polipo, etc.).

Sure, you can torify anything, if you want to.
o I don't.

Like most people, I simply want to press a button & have Tor in the
browser, which Brave does in _two_ steps.

I just want to ask if there are any experts out there who can do it in one.
