Hi,
If I can just chip in with a small euro 0.02, without ever have seen this wonderful piece of software, I'd add a vote for building things with all kind of logging turned off by default and an option for enabling it by those who need to debug things.
Rationale is that it should be easy enough for QA people to enable logging before testing while the cost of any of the "debug builds" finding its way to somebody who depend on anonymity could be catastrophically high.
Thanks, Linus
Hi, With 0.2 and onwards logging is default disabled. The logs do not reveal what the user does, but it does reveal how often they use tor.
That being said, there are still places where TBB leaves traces. Not sure if this is still a goal to make it self contained.
