This is a joke, right?

1. It is absolutely unclear how this law affects Tor servers. I will  
definitely not keep any data, and I anyway don't gather any data which  
I _could_ keep in the first place.

2. Even if a court forces the german Tor operators to gather and keep  
data, it will be useless because of Tor's design. If you put so much  
trust in the Tor nodes and operators in order to trust Tor in general  
you shouldn't use it.
