notify users that update is downloadingBug 28885: notify users that update is downloading

Add a "Downloading Base Browser update" item which appears in the hamburger (app) menu while the update service is downloading a MAR file. Before this change, the browser did not indicate to the user that an update was in progress, which is especially confusing in Tor Browser because downloads often take some time. If the user clicks on the new menu item, the about dialog is opened to allow the user to see download progress.

As part of this fix, the update service was changed to always show update-related messages in the hamburger menu, even if the update was started in the foreground via the about dialog or via the "Check for Tor Browser Update" toolbar menu item. This change is consistent with the Tor Browser goal of making sure users are informed about the update process.

Inform users when Tor Browser sets their language automaticallyBug 41378: Tell users that they can change their language at the first start

With multi-lingual builds, Tor Browser matches the user's system language, but some users might want to change it. So, we tell them that it is possible, but only once.

This commit adds all the strings needed by following Base Browser patches.

Firefox shows "vendor remoteName" as a title of the "... is playing media" notification on Linux. However, for our browser the remote name is enough, and prepending the vendor to it creates a string users usually never see.

It looks like these cases should only be invoked in the NSS command line tools, and not the browser, but I decided to patch them anyway because there literally is a maze of network function pointers being passed around, and it's very hard to tell if some random code might not pass in the proper proxied versions of the networking code here by accident.

In RESOLVED FIXED(Fx118), Blocks: 82851
file:// needs to expand ~ to home directory in some OSBug 93141, Mozilla started sending users to their home when they type ~ in the URL bar. On Linux, we change $HOME for various reason, therefore you would be redirected to the spoofed home directory when typing ~. So, we check if the original home directory is known, and use that, instead.

This commit makes Firefox look for the default profile directory in a directory relative to the binary path. The directory can be specified through the --with-relative-data-dir. This is relative to the same directory as the firefox main binary for Linux and Windows.

On macOS, we remove Contents/MacOS from it. Or, in other words, the directory is relative to the application bundle.

This behavior can be overriden at runtime, by placing a file called system-install adjacent to the firefox main binary (also on macOS).

It is ignored because of RFP and it is confusing for users.

We hide the Website Privacy Preferences section, which controls the "global privacy control" (GPC) and "do not track" (DNT) settings.

This should remain disabled, see 14.0 stableAll PlatformsTaskesr-128
Opt out from Firefox relay by default.tor-browser#42814.

The OS language might be outside the list of actually supported languages and it might leak the user's region. Therefore, we force the locale reported in Accept-Language to match one we support with translations, even when it means using a not exact region tag.

This checks privacy.spoof_english whenever setLocales is called from Fenix side and sets intl.accept_languages accordingly.

Expose privacy.spoof_english pref in GeckoViewBug 40198: Expose privacy.spoof_english pref in GeckoView

Windows has a system to set font aliases through the registry. This allows some customization that could be used as a fingerprinting vector. Moreover, this mechanism is used by Windows itself, and different SKUs might have different default FontSubstitutes.

We ship a fontconfig configuration to esnure all Linux users have the same defaults and reduce the chances of fingerprinting. We used to add this file in tor-browser-build, but some users might skip it by using the browser executable without the wrapper script. Therefore, we decided to activate the file with the FontConfig API instead of the environment variables.

FontsLinux
Investigate why STIX Two becomes the default font on LinuxBug 41043: Hardcode the UI font on Linux

The mechanism to choose the UI font does not play well with our fontconfig configuration. As a result, the final criterion to choose the font for the UI was its version.

Since we hardcode Arimo as a default sans-serif on preferences, we use it also for the UI. FontConfig will fall back to some other font for scripts Arimo does not cover as expected (we tested with Japanese).

Hardcode Arimo as a system-ui fontBug 43141: Hardcode system-ui to Arimo.

XHR requests initiated by extensions are exempt from RFP. Therefore, they report the actual app name, instead of Firefox, and the actual Firefox minor version.

This happens whenever the app name has been customized and does not match a hardcoded "Firefox".

Firefox computes an internal network ID used to detect network changes and act consequently (e.g., to improve WebSocket UX). However, there are a few ways to get this internal network ID, so we patch them out, to be sure any new code will not be able to use them and possibly link users.

We also sent a patch to Mozilla to seed the internal network ID, to prevent any accidental leak in the future. Upstream: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1817756

Do not ship JSON dumps for collections we do not expect to need. For the ones in the 'main' bucket, this prevents them from being synced unnecessarily (the code in remote-settings does so for collections in the main bucket for which a dump or local data exists). For the collections in the other buckets, we just save some size by not shipping their dumps.

We also clear the collections database on the v2 -> v3 migration.

Remove MOZ_EME build option and make EME disabled by preferences.bug 1300654). We don't want to ship it right now as the use case for it is not really visible while the code had security vulnerabilities in the past.

The GeckoView AndroidManifest.xml is not preprocessed unlike Fennec's manifest, so we can't use the ifdef preprocessor guards around the permissions we do not want. Commenting the permissions is the next-best-thing.

Do not focus the connect button if the user has never connected beforeTB 43321: Only focus the about:torconnect buttons under certain circumstances.

By default, when switching stages we move the focus back to the stage heading. This is because we want to lead the user back to the top of the page to show them the new context. This should help improve the experience when using a screen reader.

If we are in the bootstrapping stage we instead move the focus to the "Cancel" button since it is likely that the user wants to use this control.

If the user presses the "Cancel" button we return the focus to the "Connect" or "Try a bridge" button. I.e. we restore the prior focus. This allows to user to easily re-try without having to re-read the page they just saw.

We do a similar thing when the user cancels the automatic startup bootstrapping.

Finally, on page load we will focus the "Connect" button if the user has previously interacted with it. We record this interaction in a preference that persists between sessions.

We also separate out the "Loading" stage from the "Start" stage. It is unexpected for about:torconnect to be opened whilst in the "Loading" stage, but if it does happen it would be safer to keep the page blank. The way this is implemented also ensures that the initial page is blank prior to "get-init-args" resolving.

• Updated firefox.VisualElementsManfiest.xml with updated colors in each branding directory
• Added firefox.svg to each branding directory from which all the other icons are derived (apart from document.icns and document.ico)
• Added default256.png and default512.png icons

Drop effective top level domain for au.securedrop.tor.onionTB 43443: Drop au.securedrop.tor.onion effective TLD.

We have enabled HTTPS-Only mode, therefore we do not need HTTPS-Everywhere anymore. However, we want to keep supporting .tor.onion aliases (especially for securedrop). Therefore, in this patch we implemented the parsing of HTTPS-Everywhere rulesets, and the redirect of .tor.onion domains. Actually, Tor Browser believes they are actual domains. We change them on the fly on the SOCKS proxy requests to resolve the domain, and on the code that verifies HTTPS certificates.
