- gizmo686 13y agoCould you fingerprint the browser to determine how many users are using the Tor Browser? Obviously this will miss the people who just use a normal browser through Tor. Or ask onion.to to log how many requests they are forwarding to you. Although, this will miss any other proxying service that happens to be running.
- IceyEC 13y agothe easiest way is for me to just watch the referrer, it's all coming from VentureBeat :) edit: Well, most of it, some is from feed readers
- dmix 13y agoTo clarify, TorSearch isn't accessible from clearnet (from my understanding) so he can't monitor->correlate individuals activity. Such as a nefarious search.
- IceyEC 13y agoThis is exactly true; however, if a user is coming in through the onion.to forwarder as provided in the article, remember that they can track anything that you do!
- aaron42net 13y agoIf you are interested in tracking from within Tor vs in via tor2web, look for the header "X-tor2web: encrypted" on HTTP requests.
