 In version 8, clicking on the circled i gave a list of the nodes Tor was
 using, and clicking New Circuit got a new Exit Node, which allowed one to
 connect to sites that block some (but not all) Tor exit nodes.
 With version 9, if unable to connect, clicking the circled i only displays
 "Connection is not secure", and will not try a different exit node when
 one clicks on New Circuit, making it much more difficult to connect to
 sites that block some Tor Exit Nodes.
