Comment:
I used a different PC configured with Firefox/TOR to view my Wordpress
blog and establish whether they count TOR users not as unique users
anymore.
I then logged on to the blog using my own PC to monitor the internal hit
counter and noticed that it had counted each and every hit made by the
second PC.
Clearly, TOR offers zero anonymity when I use my own PC because Wordpress
recognizes the dvice.
