Re: tor-proxy.net is official proxy site of TOR? [Sorry, i meant to say http://torproxy.net/]

That new site does not respond.

Also, the same design flaw applies to ANY remote web-based proxy:
it is a single concentrator and can thus is a magnet to be attacked
or have its incoming connections monitored.  If the connections
are SSL (https) it might be slightly more difficult to snoop on, 
but most people do not check certificates so MITM could still occur.

It does not matter what the site is using on the back end.
