 With the panoptickick test (https://panopticlick.eff.org/) and:

  * tor-browser: GNU/Linux 32bit, English, 7.0.6
  * Medium or low Security Settings
  * Menu Bar and Bookmark Toolbar enabled

 I get the report that my browser configuration is unique (with medium) or
 nearly unique (with low).

 || Configuration || bits || summary ||
 || medium || 9.9 || ||
 || medium + Bookmarks Bar || 16.2 || ||
 || medium + Menu Bar || 18.37 || ||
 || medium + Menu Bar + Bookmarks Bar || 19.37 || Unique ||

 And with low:
 || Configuration || bits || summary ||
 || low || 9.89 ||  ||
 || low + Bookmarks Bar || 16.05 || nearly unique ||
 || low + Menu Bar || 17.79 || nearly unique ||
 || low + Menu Bar + Bookmarks Bar || 17.79 || nearly unique ||
