I'm not sure about timezones but there live about 6 times as many people on the northern hemisphere than the southern, so that's not one bit of information.

I know (and have known, unfortunately) multiple people over 60 that use Tor. Aha but such people are even rarer and therefore must be even easier to identify ... or are they? :)

In fact I know a handful of kids younger than 14 who have on occasion used Tor as well.

If you already (reasonably) assume the gender is most likely male, then you should know that is also less than one bit of information.

Etc. You need to try a bit harder :)




You know a handful of kids but kids aren't that likely to use tor, selection bias strikes again!

Same for over 60yo.

There is plenty of other ways to wittle away at the bits. I think you're overconfident.
