I didn't realize they'd compromised it before. It sounded like this poster knew about something recent and new, though, something more than has happened before.

The FBI probably operates their own TOR circuits. If you happen to get one of theirs, they have your real information.

There's other clever tricks besides just getting client information. Investigators have filled suspects' content with zero-width spaces, which are normally invisible. The FBI even runs illegal websites themselves to catch criminals.
