Making a request for this website using Anonymouse:
The URL (modified to remove preamble): anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/____://tempusfugit.ca - displays my home page:
This appears in the server log so:
As can be seen (or rather not) as the images on my site will not display as I have a server directive that displays another image that just says: "www.tempusfugit.ca". This is to prevent images being linked from other websites and if they do any vistor to that linking site will see my web URL.
The Anonymouse website claims that you are completely anonymous and those (like me) who are monitoring your access to their websites will not be able to tell anything about you is not totally true. It is true that you cannot be identified by your IP address but the website owner can see what pages you have accessed and what you are interested in. The fact that you are visiting their website using such a service is an indication that you are of the persuasion that a service such as Anonymouse.
It is more of an interest to me what pages you havve visited rather than where you are located.
