Why does Tor have a border?
It works by adding white margins to a browser window so that the window is as close as possible to the desired size while users are still in a couple of screen size buckets that prevent singling them out with the help of screen dimensions.

Chosen solution
In the Firefox menu, go to 'Customize...'. Then, on the customization screen that comes up, in the bottom left it says 'title bar', with a check box next to it. Check the check box to turn on the title bar. Worked for me!
Why is my Tor browser not full screen?

Does CIA own Tor?
The Tor Project says that it has always been transparent about its funding sources and that it has no past or present connection to the CIA.

How does Russia block Tor?
In December 2021, Russia's media regulator, Roskomnadzor, enacted a 4-year-old court order that allows it to order Internet service providers (ISPs) to block the Tor Project website, where the Tor Browser can be downloaded, and restrict access to its services.
Why does Tor have an onion?
Tor uses an onion-style routing technique for transmitting data. When you use the Tor browser to digitally communicate or access a website, the Tor network does not directly connect your computer to that website.
Can you still be tracked on Tor?
Although your internet traffic is encrypted on Tor, your ISP can still see that you're connected to Tor. Plus, Tor cannot protect against tracking at the entry and exit nodes of its network. Anyone who owns and operates the entry node will see your real IP address.
