You effectively use Tor 95% of the time? This surprises me, actually. I think if I used it that much I would unavoidably lose my anonymity.
Here is my worry -- Tor looks easy to use, but requires habit changes to actually be effective for anonymity. The habit changes that I am led to believe are required for any effective anonymity through Tor scream "NO NO NO NO NO!!!" at the idea of logging into javascript requiring, cookie placing, Facebook.
This seems to me like a situation where the illusion of anonymity might be worse than the reality of non-anonymity. Granted, it lets you bypass censorship. Granted, if you are very careful and, say, only use your Tor Browser to connect to Facebook and nothing else whatsoever... maybe. I just don't think I could trust myself to do it properly. And while I'm no Edward Snowden, I'm also not dumb.
