 Q2 Why do you think these icons are different?
 - Most users said the 2nd onion (with a lock) indicates HTTPS indicating
 that they understand that a level of security exists.

 Q3 What do you think this icon means?
 - Most users say (confidently) that this icon means a security issue is
 present.

 Q4 What do you think this icon means?
 - The majority of users feel its insecure and say Tor is not connected to
 this web page. They could identify that a risk was implied with this icon.
 - Quote: “Something completely wrong”

 Q5 Order these icons from less secure to more secure

 the icons correctly although it took a few seconds for each user to
