Browser Update Messaging
Tor Browser 11.5.2 (based on Mozilla Firefox 91.13.0esr) (64-bit), Extended Support Release, MacOS 12.6
I have the Tor Browser automatic connection turned off, so I need to click the "Connect" button each time I open the application.
For each scenario below, assume I don't know there's an update available.
Scenario 1. I don’t connect to the Tor network, but am connected to the internet. When I check the About Tor Browser section, it appears to automatically check for an update and I get the green check mark “Tor browser is up to date” message.
Scenario 2. I am unknowingly disconnected from the internet (ISP issue, router issue, etc), launch the Tor Browser, and access the About Tor section. Same as above, it appears to automatically check for an update and I get the green check mark “Tor browser is up to date” message.
Scenario 3. I launch Tor Browser, click “Connect”, check the About Tor Browser section, and the automatic update finds the new version, then applies it.
Question: If an update isn’t actually being requested or the update server is not successfully reached, could the messaging be changed to reflect that?
