For example, I downloaded Tor network and using it for illegal activities. Can my govt track me? Can US govt track me? I know it encrypts something but if I remember correct, FBI was able to find some Tor users before.

Note: illegal activities was for example. I’m not going to do anything illegal. I’m just planning to serve my instance with a onion address.

      the evil monitoring relays are actually relaying, so they are doing the work, they are just also taking notes.

        I know, I meant using PoW in a sign-up scheme, or something. Currently, The Tor Project takes down malicious relays based on what the community reports, which is eh; but it works.
