Hi, nimbius.

I’m the article author, can you please clarify your question?

The demo will not work without a popup window in Chrome, Firefox and Safari. The “Get My Identifier” button is needed in order to have a single user gesture to open an additional window.

However the Tor Browser demo works silently without any additional window.

On Firefox, I didn't get any popup window. I did get it on Brave browser (Chromium based).
