If your threat modeling involves a need to not be tracked at all by the US government, you shouldn’t be posting here in the first place. Otherwise, you’re probably fine.

Edit: if you haven’t threat modeled at all, then there’s your problem

Okay, noted. Can you suggest anywhere good I can read up on threat modeling for myself?
