 you start Tor Browser? What bundle did you download? Is that an issue with
 6.0.7 only? 6.0.6 bundles can be found on

 we've signed it with a proper certificate for a while. So, I think that is
 a good sign. It seems to me then the question is why is Gatekeeper happy
 but your tools not? Hm.

 Wait that was a mistake on my part, gatekeeper works on new software. It
 probably remembers the ecceptions for the stuff that I have already
 installed.

 I'm almost sure that the TorBrowser is not signed, those are simple tools
 that just translate gives a UI to terminal commands. I'll try to reinstall
 let's see.
