[tor-talk] TBB advantages in VM

[Abel Luck]

Hi,

Given the following conditions:

1) Firefox (15.0 lets say) is running in an isolated VM, and only
Firefox is running (i.e., no other user apps)
2) The VM is being properly transparently proxied by another machine
running tor in transparent proxy mode
3) The proxy machine fails cosed upon Tor exit/disconnect

What are the benefits to running the TBB, specifically, what are the
benefits of the patched Firefox+TorButton?

My first thoughts are:

* Identity correlation through circuit sharing is eliminated (TBB uses
its own tor circuits)
* Uniform Firefox fingerprint to blend in with other tor users
