As the target server is aware only of the final computer in the proxy chain, it has no access to the originating host’s clock skews.

Want to test that *no privacy* theory? Post your American Express card number on craigslist.

Then you’ll understand why we’re card carrying members of the Why Windows Stop Burglars school of thought. More barriers lead to fewer penetrators of security and privacy.

No offense to Google, but if AOL, BankAmerica, Card Systems International, et al, can’t keep your privates private, what on earth convinces you that Google can, should or will?
