Hey,
i thought about two things lately:
is there any problem using tor for online-shopping (with ssl)? Of course the shop owner will know my real name, but still my ISP and all the nodes along the way won't know what i'm buying.
It really bothers me that every idiot knows my shopping behaviour.

Then i thought about torifying everything on my smartphone.
I realized that my phone checks my mail account (mail address with real name); i guess once that happens, the exit node knows who i am and this could be a problem if i transmit sensible data without encryption (ok, that's not clever to begin with). Besides, I couldn't come up with any reason why this torifying everything should be a problem.
Do you have any?

Be aware that i'm not a whistleblower but just an average guy who thinks his privacy is important; So if i get de-anonymized, this is not fatal itself but of course i want to avoid it. An evil exit node who captures login data or something, that would be fatal - or maybe there could be some other danger by using the tor network?
