 Right now the code seems to be outdated,

 {{{
 Util.TBB_UAS = [
   'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:10.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0',
   'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:17.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/17.0',
   'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0',

 ];
 }}}

 Nowadays people enabling RFP in Firefox will get the same UA as TB, so
 using the UA alone is not sufficient. I suggest either removing this
 (snowflake won't work either way, it's better to just say that WebRTC is
 disabled) or improving it with some other heuristic for detecting TB.
