Comment (by igt0):

 I updated the code:

 https://github.com/igortoliveira/torbutton/commit/4320dfc7c36eea5f486f38d391316a2f6695ce8b


 Replying to [comment:18 gk]:
 > I imagine we are doing
 `torbutton_abouttor_message_handler.updateAllOpenPages();` directly after
 `loadFrameScript()` because we need take mobile/non-mobile state into
 account now? Could you add a comment above the `updateAllOpenPages()`
 explaining why it is needed?

 Done

 > There is still the empty line at the end of `aboutTor.css` that got
 added.

 Done


 > One thing I noticed while testing: we have `about:tor` now but it is not
 started every time Tor Browser for Android starts contrary to the desktop
 behavior. I think it would be good to have this behavior on mobile as well
 and be it just to see the donation banner more than once.

 In fact, this is scary. Because all the privacy configuration we have for
 desktop are not working on mobile. I opened a ticket about it:
