I would say that it is incorrect to assume that a person using anonymiser would be doing it for illegal purposes. Everyone likes privacy. I do not want anybody else to know more than what i wish to let them know what I am doing with my computer, internet and inside my bedroom. |

You would use wireshark, tcpdump. I know that in Firefox you can see what encryption algorithm and key size is being used. |

Imagine you got in a taxi and the taxi driver demanded in doing illegal u-turns, speeding and handbrake maneuvers during your fare, he claimed that he might be being followed? Would you get in this cab? Would you report this person to the police? I understand that everyone needs their privacy but there is such a thing as suspicious amount of privacy. |

If anonymisors are so evil why have a seperate forum for it? |

I expect an amount of privacy however I don't feel the need to go out of my way to get privacy.
