That's what someone in comint would say ;)

Does that mean usage of all file lockers are equally flagged as suspicious?

My memory gets a bit patchy here, but I'm pretty sure the detective said something along the lines of "MEGA is only ever used for <thing I was accused of>". Which struck me as blatantly false and indicative of either an agenda or incompetence.

And I tend to subscribe to Hanlon's razor:

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Hearsay, but I hear (and say) they basically got netflow and hell many ISPs are selling it and at least one firm exists re-correlating it back to users. Now mix networks are going to need to start being set to X GB/day and then uniformly emit traffic regardless if legit or padding. Also say goodbye to low latency.

I think Hyphanet or IPFS or the like with fixed and padded bandwidth links will be the next step in privacy. Again, there are consumer ISPs selling netflow data!
