What happens if you spend a lot of time on Tor?

What would happen if you spent the entire day on Tor at home? You have TAILS and everything but you're just logged on all day or you leave it on just for the hell of it. What kind of legal trouble or suspicion could this raise? How would the ISP know or who would they tell? I think it's not the big of an issue, but with the new law into place where the FBI can get a warrant for any computer using Tor, it's a little scary. Are you still protected if you use Tor a lot from home?

You don't know this because you're a tor user but the smell of onions permeates out your monitor whenever you use tor. If you spend 24 hours on tor the whole block gets fukkin turnt on onion stank

You spend all damn day reading goddamn shit post by some fucking meth guy about how wonderful meth is. You read so many that you start to wonder how it is!!!! You finally pm this meth person & ask who to order from & in a few days a goddamn 8 ball of meth arrives & you smoke all of it!!!! You become addicted to meth, lose everything & start sucking cock to support your habit of meth addiction!!!!

TL;DR / Meth is wonderful....Bahahahahaaaaa!!!!!

Since there is not a serious answer yet:

What kind of legal trouble or suspicion could this raise?

it is not illegal but might raise suspicion. someone watching your traffic might think you run a Tor node [although a check of the node list would reveal that this is not the case] or you are just a heavy Tor user [maybe you configured your router to use the Tor network and many people are in your network]. however they do not see the content of your traffic.

How would the ISP know or who would they tell?

they know you are using Tor but do not know what you are doing.

I think it's not the big of an issue

correct.

Are you still protected if you use Tor a lot from home?

yes. just use an up-to-date tails and a strong password for the persistence mode and you are fine.

We already identified your vendor account, better start running to belize.

Fwiw...I leave Tor open and running 24/7/365 on one of my boxes intentionally.

I use Tails on a separate laptop with no hdd as needed.

A second dick grows out of your already existing dick, becomes much more powerful and eventually grows arms, legs, chops itself off from you, buys a gun off the dnm and shoots you.
