The client isn't tor compatible. Which reminds me, ORBOT support for the android app would be pretty neat.. moot point of the phone is rooted, but I suppose most users don't have rooted phones.
And sure, but it only takes one slippage for anyone to be able to link your entire balance to your public account name.
At least with bitcoin and others you can just generate a new address. And even there using Tor is preferable so that linking transactions by IP is not possible.
With bitshares you're one command away from revealing the balance of any non-titan registered account, as you know!
Essentially, a privacy nightmare.
