If someone is using your service and is suspected to be committing a crime through it, as a provider you can be subpoenaed to be reasonably complicit in an investigation on said individual. That can involve keeping temporary logs, contact information, message content, or being placed under total network surveillance without notice.

Or they can just seize the servers again and you can hope _everything_ is secured on the provider's end.

The site's premise is a honeypot for just the kind of people the government would like to keep an eye on.
