Totally couldn't get past the fact...
That he is cutting up an onion with a bread knife....
The Tor Project this week rolled out an update to its browser that attempts to make the anonymity-protecting onion routing scheme more approachable. Version 9.5 arrives on the back of Firefox 77, which debuted on Tuesday with few noteworthy additions beyond security fixes. The Tor Browser is based on a foundation of Firefox …
The image is cropped - in the full size one the guy is making a sandwich with some thick lumps of bread so maybe we'll let him off for using a single knife for the whole mission.

"When I see cooked cucumber I'll accept raw onion!"
Sri Lankan cucumber curry, anybody?
"paradoxically the most popular website for Tor users is Facebook "
How is it possible to make that affirmation when you don't know what Tor users are up to and Tor prevents metadata from being used ?
I just went through Tor's Overview page and it specifically states :
Using Tor protects you against a common form of Internet surveillance known as "traffic analysis." Traffic analysis can be used to infer who is talking to whom over a public network.
So you don't know who is talking to who. To me, that means you don't know if Facebook is the preferred web site for Tor users because you don't know what other websites they're using.
Also, using Tor to post your life on FaceBook. Now that's ironic.

You don't know whether they actually log into it though - I've never had a Facebook account yet see myself visiting the site plenty of times seeing as how the rest of the world apparently decided old-fashioned websites are completely unnecessary even for small businesses, it's enough if you exist exclusively on Facebook...
21st century existentialism: I'm on Facebook, therefore I exist.
I read that in the US people have a real hard time getting a job if they don't exist on FB. It's like traveling without a passport. Therefore, using Tor for FB means that you're either an activist or a terrorist.
We've offered .onion services (e.g. dlegal66uj5u2dvcbrev7vv6fjtwnd4moqu7j6jnd42rmbypv3coigyd.onion) for most of our web-facing stuff for a few years now, and we've used a bit of a kludgy workaround using web server config and exit node IP addresses to redirect Tor users to the .onion version automatically. We've supported alt-srv and onion-location for a quite a while now too, so great to see this will get broader usage.
I gave up on installing TOR when they decided to base it on the modernistic new Firefoxes.
No way am I going to use a fugly browser.
Plus, unlike Pale Moon etc., one is not supposed to use anything like Classic Theme Restorer to make it sane; because apparently any individuality makes one a subject of interest to such actors as the NSA and the Office of Naval Research.
