Since you refer to the darkweb. The gov has extensivley studied Tor and likely has zero day exploits for the Tor browser and operates a bunch of Tor relays. Given enough time and effort it is very much possible for state actors to identify Tor users.
But unless you are a high profile gov target, Tor protects you well.

- mmooss 1y ago> unless you are a high profile gov target, Tor protects you well. How do you really know that? I understand the theory, but do you have evidence? Have you tested it or read research that has tested it? I would hesitate to give advice to people when they could get hurt.
- tuhgdetzhh 1y ago> do you have evidence Well it is of course not possible to 100% prove that Tor protects your privacy. But the lack of evidence is also evidence. While we have evidence that the gov was able to identify indiviuals using Tor e.g. hosting drug portals, there has been no reports that individuals or companies are able to de-anonymize Tor users.
