Right. But be realistic, even if you are surfing the
CIA' s website or to top it the FBI (have more VEDA if
you know what that is), they wouldn' t sniff you. Why
should they? And if, what are the sniffed infos worth?
In most cases nearly NULL!

To me it is pure nonsense to use tor and try to
register with digg. That is idiotic to me!


Please consider this:
By using Tor only for "critical" activities, you allow anyone who successfully sniffes any traffic to have a high chance to intercept something interesting. The more "innocent" traffic flows over the Tor network, the better for those who really need the protection it provides.
