Not necessarily. Even though the information you are sending is encrypted (encoded), an intermediate party might
be able to see the website you are connecting to. By knowing the website you are connecting to, the other party
might have a pretty good idea what you are doing on that site. For example, if you're looking for a new job using a
computer at work, your company might watch for key words in websites or keep a log of visited sites. If you upload
a resume to a job website, the document might be encrypted, but your company would still know you're looking for
a new job.2011-09-27, ∼4810🔥, 0💬
