You can learn a lot about a person based on the IPs they visit. HTTPS/SSL doesn't protect you from that.
In many cases you can even determine which protocols and general content they are consuming from that IP based on traffic shaping/fingerprinting. The burst of traffic your browser sends when loading a particular site is quite exploitable. There's plenty of software already available that makes use of this.
