Title: Help? What sites can I go to?
Post by: immacui on August 30, 2011, 07:31 am
Hi everyone!!!

Someone told me that I shouldn't go to a webpage that isn't .onion when I'm using tor to browse silk road.  Can someone tell me why this is a bad idea?

It is a hassle to have to use a different browser for tor stuff vs. everything else...

Is there some security risk to visiting a .com website in the same browser that uses tor????

Your cookies and other things about your "browsing fingerprint" are then tied to whatever identities you have with those .com's. You can bet they roll out the red carpet for LE. Anything with that stupid "LIKE" button should be avoided like the plague.
