I am on hexbear because r/Chapo got killed and the spinoff discord sucked.
For one, if you are actively involved in any kind of organizing, or have ever done any level of public posting, you should assume you are already on a watchlist to some degree. I assume I am already on one for being active in r/Chapo all those years ago, plus previous protests. For two, unless you are in the UK and have active verbal support for Palestine, pretty much everything said here is defensibly legal. And for three, nobody here actually threatens the stability of any government, it is unlikely we are targeted for death. They are going to spend their time going after much bigger fish.
There is no such thing as real internet anonymity, it is just a matter of how hard someone wants to dig. I assume that everything I say online can and could be found and linked to me. Governments already have those resources and knowledge at their disposal, regular ass people do not, and it is regular ass people who would be the primary beneficiary of this process, because they are the ones who are most often targeted in scams and manipulation.

Yeah but the friction between digging in to find someone and just running a SQL command is pretty different. The first will require significant resources that can’t be used to track down every single dissenter while the later is basically the same as shouting rebellious shit directly on the Fuhrer’s face.
