I think that if I was watching the site logs and userA and userB continually logged in daily at about the same times from the same exit, I might infer them to be the same user. I might not even be aware IP's in logs are multiuser tor/proxy nets. Now add in similar client app versions, handshakes, account names, headers, settings, etc... and parameter by parameter the linkage gets stronger, even without infringing upon content. Keep the exits different and it's weaker. It's not about the maximum one can *prove* given a dataset, but about presenting the least one can easily see, guess or think. > the site might have rules And so might the user. Circumstances unknown. Neither are ours to weigh. _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
