Comment:
> These background connections use the catch-all circuit, so they are
isolated from the content that I intentionally load, but they are lumped
into the same circuit with each other. Are there anonymity implications
with combining any of these background connections together on the same
circuit?
If 1 is true then answer(2) is yes. FPI FTW!
