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.

    What I meant with Signal fiasco is, they didn’t published server code for a year and the fact that they’re a US establishment. It’s not looking that bad but I’m not going to trust them anymore.

        Hmm, maybe you’re right. But still its not like they didn’t released the source code for a year.

            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.

                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.
