Genuinely surprised to see .onion urls in my referrer logs. Something must be broken somewhere for that to be happening.
@keverets I suppose just the fact that something tor-related would emit or permit passthrough of more data than is purely necessary. Doesn’t the onion URL give me a way to backtrack further than the proxy?
@mhoye if using a Tor proxy then there are limits to what it can detect and deal with. Orbot or similar presents as a VPN but then using Chrome to access sites leaks some tracking info regardless of what the proxy can do
@mhoye there are also Tor proxies that allow other browsers to work, which would have no hesitation about providing referer
