[tor-talk] Anonymity & HTTPS Everywhere Observatory
Have any recommendations from Tor Project been issued regarding the new? options in HTTPS Everywhere to use their "SSL Observatory," where certain info is transmitted to them? Now there's one more item for TBB users to make a decision about that could compromise anonymity. ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk

Nothing official yet. We ship HTTPS Everywhere 1.2.1 which does not include the SSL Observatory code. The HTTPS Observatory code is in 2.0developmentx releases, see https://www.eff.org/files/Changelog.txt. Currently, when installing the 2.0developmentx release, the first prompt, after installation and restart of firefox, is to decide if you want to opt-in to the SSL Observatory collection (which does transmit via tor). The default is opt-out.

Re: [tor-talk] Anonymity & HTTPS Everywhere Observatory
Well, when I installed TBB 2.2.35-4, the HTTPS Everywhere version is 2.0 dev 4. Possibly the version updated along w/ any other extensions, on 1st start of TBB 2.2.35-4? But, that's what I have & I'd never seen the pop up about the Observatory before now.
