It just occured me that Google's Chrome (or other browser) could
possibly identify a user who browses with an IP anonymizer, such as the
Private Internet Access (PIA) if the copy of browser carries some kind
of unique ID, such as what cell phones have (IMEI number) and that ID
was at one time linked to the real user when he/she was not using an
anonymizer. What do you think?


What you are describing is the browser's fingerprint. If your browser
still uses .xpi extensions, installSecret Agent from
https://www.dephormation.org.uk/index.php?page=81. This can change
the fingerprint on each HTTP(S) request.

Note that you cannot install Secret Agent on Firefox because the
developer correctly refuses to submit his extension to Mozilla for being
signed. You can install Secret Agent on SeaMonkey because that browser
does not check extensions for signatures.

Yes, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and other
"founding fathers" owned slaves. However, they created
a nation. Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis, Thomas
"Stonewall" Jackson and other "heroes" of the
Confederacy tried to tear the nation apart. Statues
and other monuments to those "heroes" of the
Confederacy actually celebrate traitors and treason.
