That is a good point. However if they had a good reason I'm sure they could get other governments to cooperate. But if you are only breaking American laws and not the country's you are using as a proxy you could possibly be safe.

I suspect that a government could more easily trace you through something they already know a lot about, as opposed to something they've never encountered. But then again, Tor looks fairly secure.

I highly doubt there is anything the government has yet to encounter....
