Hello.
Can or will anyone address this new pop-up when using the latest version of
the Tor Browser Bundle for Windows, as to the safety of choosing any of the
choices presented?
This is it: The new window says the following:
SSL Observatory
HTTPS Everywhere can detect attacks against your browser by sending the
certificates you receive to the Observatory. Turn this on?
Yes No
Details and Privacy Information Ask Me Later
Thanks

From what I understand the observatory just aims to use statistics
generated to identify 'fake' or malicious ssl certs.
I would definitely enable https everywhere, and strongly consider
observatory, but both are optional...
Both are by EFF, and they are pretty trustworthy, but if you know what
you are doing then you can disable both and still have strong anonymity.
If you don't know what you are doing you can enable both of them and
still be perfectly exposed.
