This is all true, but there's more to worry about than just feds. Similar deanonymization attacks can be leveraged by fascists and liberals who want to harass our users. Not compelling google to reveal IPs, sure, but linking to a malicious domain (and obscuring the link destination with markdown), or to a targeted social media post and seeing who interacts, or a bunch of other vectors.
No reason to make attackers jobs easier, but also true that even the most careful of us should not feel a false sense of security
Completely agree, we should be wary of that
