This is not the best way to view our current problems with privacy.

There are certain aspects of a person's life that should be kept private, preventing problems that could potentially be hard or impossible to erase.

@OP Simply using Tor shows that you are actively trying to cover your tracks. I'm not saying that it's bad, or wrong. However, it's not discreet in the least. In fact, it can easily turn more eyes towards your direction.

As for trouble with the game, I'm no authority here, however your bouncing connections could cause trouble in the future. I'm not saying that it will, but your activity is being logged. You might be confused for another, someone who is potentially abusing FFR. Another point of concern is your account's safety. It will be harder to prove your ownership of the account, or provide believable alibis, if the IP being logged has also been used on various other accounts.

I honestly doubt that you will run into any sort of issue, but you should keep this in mind.

And of course, it's easier for governments to do these kinds of things because they have the resources to do so, and there are quite a couple of Tor exit nodes that are ran by the government. If you're checking deep web websites, it's even worse because multiple governments have their hands in pockets for popular websites over there.

So on this website Tor doesn't even really block you from much because administration doesn't care unless you plan on cheating, and people don't care period. And even then, I haven't really seen administration hand out an IP ban for cheating.

Oooh it's been awhile since I've seen a deep web reference.

Obviously this guy is here to be a child predator..why else would he want to browse anonymously? Sarcasm

Precisely why I made the topic. Maybe I should have just sent a private message directly to an admin...
