Maybe OP is part of a law enforcement entity!!
I doubt it. I think OP wanted upvotes and didn't read carefully. Something like "tor user de-anonymized via retired app" would of been more accurate.
This is another great lesson that even the best privacy tools can't protect a user from their own bad opsec.
It just sucks as a lot of Lemmy users will just read the title and assume its true and then tell their friends tor is no longer safe.
