#6151: Startpage is blocking searches
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Reporter: cypherpunks | Owner: mikeperry
Type: defect | Status: new

Component: TorBrowserButton | Version:

Changes (by rransom):
* priority: major => blocker
Comment:
The Tor Project has effectively endorsed Startpage by choosing their
search engine as the default in TBB. The last sentence of Startpage's
blocking page attempts to pass off their advice as supported by The Tor
Project. That is unacceptable.
The Startpage search engine file must be removed from the Tor Browser
Bundle, as soon as possible.
