TLS doesn't matter / isn't needed here right? The IP address is still in the header from what I understand. So the only thing https can hide is the content, such as a credit card or password that you enter into the site. The fact that it's a plaintext website that doesn't change means that the exact same information is encoded in simply giving the IP address as there is in knowing that someone looked around the site - because there's nothing else to do? I would like to learn more about how I am wrong, if I am wrong.
