Incontrovertable proof Tor+privoxy Not anonymous on ssl connections

| I now have proof that Tor + Privoxy does not give a fully
anonymous connection on ssl connects. But since the rest
of the a*holes in this group never answer MY posts, I'm not
going to give the evidence. Only to say that do not trust
that combination to protect your anonymity when connection
ssl to websites. Have a nice day. (And I don't care if you
call me a troll, because I know the reason I am posting-to
desseminate the truth.

As long as you have setup your browser so that SSL connects also go
through the proxy, it will be anonymous. A lot of people forget to do
that and just set a proxy for http connections.
If you've set up Privoxy to block your User-Agent header for example
then Privoxy will be unable to do that over an SSL connection. It won't
be able to block ads either. The SSL encryption is between your browser
and the server, so Privoxy can't modify anything as it can't see the
actual text; it just passes it unmodified.
That doesn't remove your anonymity though, unless you've set your User-
Agent header to contain your name, address, phone number and favorite
color. The connection still goes through a set of tor nodes like
before.
Just remember to set your browser to use Privoxy for SSL too and you're
fine.

OH GOODY! Another goobah with a mission, claiming that something is leaking
information. Next comes the "Tor + Privoxy Blows Your privacy" campaign
if you have "Proof", then either post it or shut the XXXX up.

You're Daniel Joseph Min by any chance? Your posts are just annoying and
off topic here..
