+      Tor Browser Bundle is a bundle of the Tor daemon, Tor Browser (heavily patched version of
+      Firefox), several essential extensions for Tor Browser, and some tools that glue those
+      together with a convenient UI.
+
+      `tor-browser-bundle-bin` package is the official version built by torproject.org patched with
+      `patchelf` to work under nix and with bundled scripts adapted to the read-only nature of
+      the `/nix/store`.
