About a year ago I began requiring any and all Tor searches at Scroogle to use SSL. Using SSL is always a good idea, but the main reason I did this is that the SSL requirement discouraged script writers who didn't know how to add this to their scripts. This policy helped immensely in cutting back on the abuse I was seeing from Tor.
My apologies for putting this on tor-talk, but it is the only way I know to communicate with Daniel Brandt. Hopefully he is still monitoring this list. Requiring SSL for Tor searches is all well and good, but it creates a problem that I haven't found a solution for: creating "bookmarks". The (SSL) page of search results has a link to "how to create a bookmark" which is *not* https. Attempting to use this page to create a "bookmark" via Tor gets blocked because of the SSL requirement. Trying to load the same page via https results in an error. It would be really nice if you could create a solution to this. Or, if a solution already exists, post the solution here. Thanks.
