Title: Are there Websites that should never be open using TOR if so which ones?

Hi, I am curious if there are any websites that should never be open while using TOR that could possibly expose you? thanks

Moving this to Newbie discussion as it is not a Customer Support issue.

Not sure about specific sites as such, but just apply some common sense.
eg. if you're searching on Google, make sure you're not signed in. Or, don't go checking your eBay account, or buy things off Amazon (address).
Tor enables anonymity, but only if you use your noodle.
I've also read in these forums that it's not safe to have a tor enabled browser open in one window, while surfing on a separate non-tor browser at the same time in another window. No doubt someone will elaborate on this.

Very interested in seeing this developed upon as well.
