Comment(by DasFox):
mikeperry I'm not sure what you're trying to say.
You think by passing the HTTP/HTTPS proxy and gettign online without it
not a problem?
Or you don't believe this could a threat to someone? If you don't think
this could ever pose a security problem, try telling that to the people in
China who use Tor to do things their country considers illegal online and
need this security and protection, otherwise they'd find themselves in
jail. I consider that a real problem...
