Description

@NomadicUser

Please add an option to the Repo install of Brave to update and install the browser over Brave's Onion tor+https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave4u7jddbv7cyviptqjc7jusxh72uik7zt6adtckl5f4nwy2v72qd.onion rather the clear connection.

The very least tor+https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com cause I saw it was not torified over apt after installing and I doubt I'm the only one who would like such a feature. (Kicksecure already updates over Tor)

I have been updating the browser over tor for some time but not with the newest debian source format but last I checked the new format supports the tor+ format provided by apt-transport-tor.

sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser.list > /dev/null <<'EOF'
