Peace out,EvocI'm afraid I'm not going to teach you anything as most of this is well known and publicly available.Careless as in one or more of the following: using the same username on SR or the forums that you do on other sites; revealing information about yourself, your profession, interests/hobbies, etc.; installing additional extensions in TBB that cause security leaks; running flash content or java applets; reconfiguring TBB settings IF you don't know what you're doing. There are a bunch of other things listed on the torproject site.And they do specifically warn that traffic passes through the exit node unencrypted, making it easy to intercept by spying on exit nodes.They also can analyze your comments in forums against other things that you've publicly written using accounts known to be yours.Well ya basically contradicted your first sentence by writing the next but anyhow.That is all I was wondering really about small details like that and little things that are no nos so I thank you for that.Can I ask you this though, if a firefox message is popping up asking you to update to their most recent update, should you do it? I presume yes right?Also, should I make sure that all my tor browsing is shut off while I do it.And last question, I should never use any site on tor which isn't a .onion, is this correct??Forgive my ignorance in not knowing this but your answer is greatly appreciated, thank you.Peace out, Evoc
