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.

    You’re right. Thats why I like Matrix more than Signal now.

    Also I’m not looking for a security method to escape from a specific target. It’s all curiosity about general security.

      matrix leaks metadata to the servers much worse then signal, just FYI. Hating how a team runs is different then then risk profile of the product.

      Don’t like emotions cloud your decision making

        I’m not hating. I just like keeping my half encrypted data on my own server instead of fully encrypted on someone else’s server.
