No? I don't intend to post anonymously on this list and I'm well aware that my website contains information about where I live and how anyone interested can reach me. That's intentionally as well. I use Tor to surf the web anonymously, but if I say something in public I usually use my real name. For the topics I'm interested in, that's currently not a problem in Germany. I still use encryption for privacy-sensitive information and if you run a Tor exit node, you will not be able to alter my mails without getting noticed. > Did using Gmail + Tor + Thunderbird + Pgp/GnuPG > and access Gmail with SSL/TLS connexion is not a better solution ? Personally I think using Gmail is never a solution. You are right though: if you are using a real mail client with real encryption, you shouldn't have a problem with man in the middle issues.
