I think so too.
But I have an asking - were there any court proceedings (successful or
not) against tor-users based on their deanonimisation in the USA?
Because I never hear or read about it I very want to know it.
If there were no such proceedings it seems to me that we must
acknowledge that efficiency of the Tor has very high level.
