[guardian-dev] Hi, i' new

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Hmm, this sounds like a bug report then :-/  Apps should not be able to
use the control port, as far as I know.  I don't think its possible to
allow apps to use the Tor control port in a secure way, unless there is
some kind of query-only "guest" mode.

Orbot should really use ControlSocket to use a UNIX domain socket on the
filesystem so it can be protected by file permissions.
