Good idea OP, I'd rather not have anybody know I'm on this site.

And the reason you want to do this is what exactly? Most people usually ask about this so they can browse the site while at work. I have news for you. Networking and security appliances these days can still inspect your web browsing which is going over their network even if it is using SSL.

I work with data security in both law enforcement and the private side. BetterCallSaul is right, workplaces can see what you are doing on their internal networks if they really want to. Even with SSL enabled. That's the bad news. The good news is, the I.T. staff do not have time to look at all that all the time. So you would need to be targeted by a manager who asks the I.T. staff to look at your traffic in order for them to know what sites you go to and what you post/read.
Now on the law enforcement side of the line, we can do a lot too. Powers vary based on if you are engaged in criminal activities or just a civil case (like a woman divorcing you). In law enforcement our God powers are only on those doing child porn or terrorist related activities.
PM me if you want to ask some specific questions. But bottom line, I don't see where SSL on Sosuave would really help anything.. But I could always be wrong..

Hi guys,
The only way to decrepit the content is to install same SSL certificate on your proxy.
That is why I see it as a big benefit to have it SSL enabled , at that time you dont care where you are opening it even if somebody is snooping they cant really see what you are doing beside the fact you are on this domain browsing .
If you think otherwise I really would like to see the source because I work in IT too and so far https websites considered safe way to communicate with server without being monitored from someone .
I appreciate your response , but no body can intercept SSL pages and see what is user doing , the only thing visible from SSL enabled websites are their domain. That is why all social media websites and banks are SSL , you can safely browse them even from public networks and nobody can know what is your password even if they get that data packets.
