When you right-click the add-on and click "Find Updates", Firefox will make GET connection to clearnet Searxes.

Why clearnet instead of the onion address? That would protect against malicious exits scanning for paranoid users.

IUIC the update is only done from within Tor Browser, nothing else makes use of this addon, or is this for firefox using tor as proxy? (bad idea)

BTW: i followed the link at the top and got:

$365091 (Please enable DNT[Do Not Track])

Could there be an explanation with a link to legitimate this. Using default settings in Tor Browser it's unclear which consequences it has to my anomyity if i follow a random advice on the internet to change my settings.

Thanks for your great work!

I suggest you close this issue. Searx is not Searxes.
